Sorry, I saw this a bit late but my advice is to download the SofaScore app for this kind of stats.

Still fairly newbie in tennis trading. Out of curiousity, will there be enough liquidity and interest for trading to be a thing for the quals for the French starting tomorrow? Or is there only enough interest once the tournament starts proper?

Just saw my a** on John Isner.Lay'd Norrie at 1.84-ish after Isner lost 7-6 on tie break in the first set. He comes out ..all 6'10 of him and loses his 1st service game 
..big serve and all against the #102 in the world 
....$#%^&*&*#@%@#..only $25 in hole but this trading game..wow 
Clever Norrie playing to Isner's backhand on clay..

Isner is usually quite good when he has lost the first set and conditions in Lyon are on the quicker side for clay, so you would anticipate a hold. It is however still clay - not Isner's best surface and it is the week before the French Open, therefore motivation must be
questioned.
You might want to question whether 1.84 is a price you wanted to be laying at after the first set - the market probably holding onto Isner's price for the usual reasons - big serve vs no. 102 etc.

Yeah, I thought about the French Open motivation thing but thought perhaps an indifferent loss would be worse than pushing a little-wrong choice . I am not experienced enough to know whether the price represented value but felt that Isner would hold at least the first game and I would scalp a cheeky 10-15 ticks.Live and learn
Isner is a notorious "big server" everyone is aware of this, when that isn't firing the rest of his game is nothing special; I suggest there will be little chance of scalping 10-15 ticks in the first game of the second set against a vastly lower ranked opponent. This is WTA territory and scalping their serve will leave you a nervous wreck!
Spending time watching how the market reacts to different players at different times of the set/match is always interesting.

WTA Strasbourg Final women's match of the year for me so far.
If you want a trading match-up look no further (when Pavlyuchenkova is in the mood)
Just look at Cibulkova's chart!

Dallas I see your favourite player kicks off her defence tomorrow...
Kozlova is not the worst player if she loses the first set - yet she's played only once on Clay this season and that after a long break, she has yet to make it past the 1st round here - her form is woeful - Ostapenko should have far too much fire power...
Otherwise it's a real litany of players who are incapable of holding onto leads - Cornet/Errani, Dulguru/Mchale, Linette/Diyas etc
I fear I have been spoiled today !
