ATP - Taylor Dent v Somdev Dev Varman
12 August 2008

I don't see often such nice value in such big odd. First round of Washington final and bookies keep as favourite quite unknown 23-years old Indian against former top20 player, one of the best serve&volley American's 27-years old Taylor Dent. Dent after injury isn't even classified in ranking, but still I remember that he was in top20 in 2006. Now after back surgery slowly he should get back to tennis. He played only two matches since 2006 both in this season, both lost against Mamiit and Dancevic, not long time ago in Newport where he lost in three sets. If he was able to fight on quite equal level with Dancevic I think for sure he will fight with Somdev ranked in around 300'rd place of ATP ranking. Washington surface is fast and Taylor technique should work here. Powerful serve and nice volley's under the net. Dent was one of the best players on hard and I don't believe he forget how to play tennis. It's been a while since awful injury, surgery and othe problems, he already played in this season - Taylor it is the right time to get back to business. Somdev started his career just a year ago. He had some nice results in college tennis tours and he just won a challenger in Lexington where he beat players like Reynolds, Stoppini and Kendrick. Still he don't seems to be a player for such fast surfaces, only 180cm height and 72kg weight. He went through qualification and I wonder what this Mr. Unknown will show against Dent who is also a riddle because of health problems he faced some time ago. I think it is a risky bet but with such big odds for win of well experienced Dent I see a value here.
