Key Points

  • This tennis betting tip is from the first round at ATP San Jose and the match between Steve Darcis (72) and Steve Johnson (365).
  • Darcis got to the final of the Dallas Challenger last week losing to Levine (160) in the final.
  • His motivation this week is questionable as there's a ATP 500 event coming up in Memphis next week.
  • He's been an unreliable player so far this year, retiring from two events already. His retirement against Serra in Melbourne when leading by 2 sets what particularly bizarre.
  • Today he's up against Johnson a 22 year old from the University of Southern California who won the NCAA singles title in 2011.
  • He's been given several wildcards into ATP events but hasn't quite yet managed to win any matches at the highest level.
  • He came very close to beating Bogomolov Jr (45) at the US Open last summer.
  • His win against Chardy (61) in straight sets in Cincinatti qualifying last summer showed what he is capable of.
  • I think today in front of his home fans he could finally get a main tour win on the board. He's 6 foot 2 and has a strong serve which should work well on these fast courts in San Jose.
  • Darcis (at 5 foot 10) is more of a retriever and has never played in San Jose before.
  • In recent months he's lost to players ranked 107, 182, 134 and 160 indoors so you certainly wouldn't be too confident backing him today.
  • I think there's a great deal of value in backing Johnson today and I'm very hopeful he'll get his first ATP main tour win.
  • Bwin are way out of line with their odds here and they would even pay out on Johnson if Darcis retires for the 3rd time this year today.
