Tennis Betting Odds
Tennis betting gives you a number of unique markets to bet on. Within our online tennis betting markets bets can be placed on each individual game, each set and to an extent, every point. With the amount of different points contested in every game, the in-play tennis betting markets are where the best bets can often be found whilst tennis betting. Unlike betting on other sports, tennis is split into lots of little games, which can essentially be treated as unique events. So whether you're looking to bet on particular match or a player to win, placing small tennis bets on each individual game can be a good way to build up a small bankroll.
When looking at Tennis odds, it's always important to consider three main things: Ranking, is it a Grand Slam tournament? and the turf. The French Open is the only Grand Slam to use clay courts out of the four grand slams. So, consider that when looking at Tennis odds, which players best suit Clay courts, for example, it is on these courts where Rafael Nadal tends to have an advantage. In a tournament, anybody can win but in a Grand Slam, that is where the higher-ranked players tend to perform admirably on the bigger stage but of course, there can be only one tournament winner, so finding the player best suited for each event is in our opinion.
Betting on ATP & WTA Tennis Tours
While looking at the tennis betting market our Bet UK players will probably notice two different tournament types. WTA focuses on women's tennis and we'll always have the top markets for all of the games and who can potentially win outright. ATP focuses on men's tennis and its where players will see odds for all the men's tournaments running throughout the year.
World Tennis League Betting
The World Tennis League is a mixed-gender team Tennis tournament that was started in 2022. The inaugural edition of the tournament was held in December at the Coca-Cola Arena in Dubai. The competition has four teams of four, Team Hawks, Team Kites, Team Falcons & Team Eagles, due to this competition being an exhibition, it wasn't the 16 highest-ranked players who took part but the competition still had some major names such as Novak Djokovic, Alexander Zverev, Iga Świątek, Nick Kyrgios and Caroline Garcia. Tennis odds for the original tournament were heavily in the favour of Team Falcons but they were actually the worst-performing team at the tournament.
