Who are you really Felix...
The Canadian marabout comes out of a final in Madrid after 3 withdrawals, a final against a sick guy and a Mannarino along the way. I don't forget that he almost fell in the first round against Nishioka especially!
Yes okay, he beats Ruud in 2 sets too... Ruud had just made 2 finals in a row and Madrid favors Félix's game unlike that of Casper. This in no way takes away from the fact that Félix is fighting, he tries to get less and less involved on the important points, to construct his point intelligently... Still, each time we think that Félix is and that 'he's just gained confidence and that's it, here we go again, well the guy is giving you a poor performance again. Against VDZ, he won twice indoors, and lost once at Indian Wells on slow hard courts. QED? We know Félix by heart, and VDZ definitely has what it takes to piss him off. He is a pure blocker who can also round with his forehand and who covers the court wonderfully well to always give you one more ball. Exactly what bothers Felix. And VDZ comes out of 3 really solid matches because Bagnis we have to give him 3 and 1 at the moment, and Moreno, if you don't know him, he's a hell of a piece all the same. So a betting opportunity? Let's look at the odds...
