Finding a victor of this unusual tournament always seems more like a lottery than any other because even the greatest players in history have experienced their fair share of double-start horrors over the years, especially during the first round when it’s merely best-of-three sets.
However, as the competition progresses, the cream most definitely rises to the top, considering the mental fortitude and all-around talent required to regularly pin doubles at both ends of legs while relentlessly scoring high in the middle, even though nobody is safe at the beginning.
James Wade is a huge 33/1 outsider to win this trophy in Leicester for the third time in his career and the first time since 2010. However, Wade hasn’t advanced beyond the second round since he made it to 2014 final.
The Machine has one of the lowest seasonal averages (93.37) in the field, but in stage events in 2022, he has the highest checkout percentage (44.44%), which is astounding. He is undoubtedly one of the toughest competitors on the tour, so in theory — and in actual play many years ago — this competition looks to be a great fit for him. Wade’s opponent is Martin Lukeman, one of the three tournament debutants. Lukeman has had a fantastic year, making it to his first European Tour final back in April. However, he is not quite in that form right now, and Wade should be able to use his experience to beat him as he did at the World Matchplay.
With only one World Grand Prix participation between them, Wade has a huge advantage over Ross Smith and Andrew Gilding, both of whom would pose a threat in the second round based on recent results. I favour Wade to progress from this quarter, and if things are going on his way, he can well go all the way. At this high price, it makes sense to back him.
