Here’s what we got for you today:

• Carlos & Iga winning Indian Wells (again)

• Miami Open predictions

• Betting BIG (kinda)

Dominating The Desert

Carlos & Iga are straight winners 🏆🏆🏆. Did you know they’ve won tournaments in the same week.. 6x already?!

• 2022 Stuttgart / Barcelona

• 2022 Miami

• 2022 US Open

• 2023 Doha/Buenos Aires

• 2023 Stuttgart / Barcelona

• 2024 Indian Wells

S/O @vanshv2k for the stat line above.

Iga & Carlos dropped a combined 2 sets en route to their titles.. and it was Carlos who lost those 2 sets.. sheesh Carlos! 🤭

What does this mean for the rest of the players on tour? Well.. bad news. It seems like the 2024 Sunshine Double is already written.

Miami Open Predictions

If you’re caught up with what happened at Indian Wells, then it’s probably going to look similar in Miami. It’ll be the Carlos & Iga show again, and I’m here for it.

Who’s going to stop them? Well.. not many folks. But here’s my FFT Bet of the Tournament:

ATP: Jannik Sinner, and MAYBE Tommy Paul if his ankle is healed. I love Jannik & TP’s game. Their incredible footwork, unreal athleticism, shot selection and GRIT make them so dangerous on the court.

WTA: Coco Gauff. She’s playing on home turf and she tends to bring home at least one of the US titles. But if we’re being honest, call me crazy. Iga is winning the H2H matchup 9-1. But I can’t help but believe Coco will show out in Miami.

Betting BIG (kinda)

#TeamCoco is here and I’m rolling with her to win the Miami Open in front of her home crowd. Oddsmakers have set Coco at +800 to take home the trophy. Considering this bet.

Some side bets I’m taking in the opening round:

• Wager $50 for Naomi Osaka @ -175

• Wager $50 for Yue Yuan @ -140
