Set Handicap Edge

The set line is set at 1.5 sets, with Quevedo laying the -1.5 handicap and Kenin getting +1.5 sets. Quevedo's overall YTD record of 11-8 gives her a solid foundation when taking on an opponent who has dropped 20 matches this season.

Kenin boasts five career titles and a career-high rank of 4, but her 6-20 record this year suggests covering a set spread won't be easy against a reliable right-hander. Taking Quevedo to close it out in straight sets gets a big tick for punters targeting set market value.
