Indian Wells Qualifying - Yani $3.70 to Bring Matosevic Back To Earth


Matosevic is an Aussie journeyman who had a breakout tournament, and made his first ATP final on Sunday. After upsetting Alex Bogomolov Jr. he had a gift run in that tourney, and most pundits were surprised with just how far he did go. I doubt he has ever started an ATP match at a price this short before, and has rarely started as a fave in an ATP match before last week.

Yani is on about the same level really. Challenger standard… but he has beaten better players than Mato recently and I think for +270 you are getting good odds on a toss of a coin match where there is a decent chance Matosevic will have a come down loss.
