It was only a few days ago you were describing Almagro as "just an avarage clay courter, limited tennis personality"
Wouldn't necessarily argue though that Almagro has a chance. I've laid Nadal 3-0 @ 1.56, may also back Almagro to win although I'll decide later.
Also laid Ivanovic v Schnyder @ 1.17 in the women's event. Schnyder's a player I like to oppose as a favourite but back if she's an outsider. She leads Ivanovic 4-3 on the H2H, although Ivanovic has won the last 3. She may be on the decline, but she's still the world no. 11, and she's not completely without a chance here.
