Bertens v Halep will be a high quality final shame it's not on the Sunday to give Bertens some more recovery time.

Market still forming for final but reckon a bit of value on Bertens, she's been playing well on clay recently, not dropped a set at Madrid yet...

Is it a way to change server in Tennis Trader during a match?
The ongoing V. Williams vs Mertens match has the
wrong server and it is a mess :evil:

Only BF can do that,

If using TT and trading manually you can untick the auto update box and manually add the scores but if using automation or the WL your at the mercy of BF or rather the person who sets the servers at the start realising the mistake

Ok, thanks Dallas. It is strange BF does not double check every tennis match say just after the first game to see if they have got the correct server. Those few seconds would hardly cost them too much resources compared to what they spend at every football match around the globe which they have to follow live during all +90 minutes and nervously suspend at every hard tackle...
And the $$$ size of their tennis market are huge...

What about all the bots running in the tennis market. How do they handle an incorrect server input?

You can set the server yourself manually as long as the first serve of match hasnt gone in. Quite difficult to heatr sometimes whose serving at the toss...so you have to watch carefully as they walk out to start.

It would be a great help if the commentator told us who is serving..but they NEVER do! anyone know how to contact comms on Twitter say cos I'd tell them to!!

Thanks for the tip!
Just after the toss it will be possible to follow the ball kids and see what side they send the balls to
and then there will be time to check Tennis Trader while the players walk out to start the match.
I know that the player who wins the toss decides who will start to serve,
but does the first serving game always start from a particular side (of the referees chair) ? I have never thought of it...

Thanks for ball-boy tip..hadnt thought of that! No..winner of the toss chooses either to serve..or chooses end..if they choose end..other player serves. Thats the way in club tennis anyway!

Might be a few good spots today...and a few to be careful with. Given how the rain has the schedulers scrambling.

Players having niggling injuries, or long-standing issues like Rafa, might not fancy it today this close to the French, if they end up in a dog fight in their first match, given that they're set up to play two matches today. Or players prone to throw their toys out of the pram, Kyrgios or Fognini, might just not bother fighting back.

Diego Schwartzman is scheduled for, potentially, three matches today!!! Two singles and a double. Others might be in the same boat, haven't done a full check yet.
