French Open - Day 5 Ladies

Mariana Duque Marino will face an unprepared Magdalena Rybarikova on Thursday, and should be able to take advantage of that situation.

Rybarikova hasn't really been on top of here game since Indian Wells, all the way back in March when she lost to Victoria Azarenka 6-0 6-0 in the quarter finals. Since that day, she has retired three times and played 22 challenger matches. While she has enjoyed success in those events, playing players ranked well outside the world top 100 isn't the best way to warm up for a Grand Slam, and she curiosuly opted to play a carpet event just the week before Roland Garros.

With Duque Marino knocking out Irina Camelia Begu, she took quite a scalp in the first round. Clay is her favourite surface, winning nearly 250 matches on the surface through her career. and at 4/6, she looks excellent value in this one.

Duque Marino to win at 4/6
