Hitting Kvitova at 100/1 odds was a fun one – and for multiple reasons beyond just the cash supplement. First, my confidence in it could not have been higher at the beginning of the Miami tournament. When I saw Kvitova going off at 100/1, I asked two of my friends who cover the WTA Tour full time what the heck was going on. Was she injured?!?! No, in fact it was just a gross pricing failure by the market. Second, I naturally gave out the pick at Pickswise in my pre-tournament best bets article. Winning bets yourself is fun; handing them out for many others (hopefully!) to benefit from is even better!
