Re: Tennis - French Open - almost a lock?
Llabb, to be fair you should compare DiMaggio being even money to get a hit in each of his next 6 games, and also being up against better then average pitchers for most of those games....because that is what Nadal is going to have to do.
He will need to win 6 straight, with the last 3 against probably hot players and all the games against players and fans who will be rooting against him. Also,all the games being played on what's widely regarded as a crapshoot surface. IMO, Nadal has been VERY fortunate to win 56 straight, and I would not lay that much chalk on him or Federer to win.
