Tennis Betting Guide
When some people think of tennis, they think only of Wimbledon and popular champions such as Becker, Agassi, Sampras and Navratilova. Others simply think of the wonderful simplicity of the game which makes betting on it both a pleasure and a delight. Consider this:
Putting doubles to one side, tennis is primarily an individual sport. This means that, as in golf, the bettor doesn't have to worry about assessing matters such as team dynamics or managerial decisions as he would in soccer or cricket.
Tennis is played professionally all year round, both indoors and outdoors. This gives the bettor plenty of action. In fact, there's so much tennis played each year that a bettor could easily choose to specialize in the game exclusively.
Most major games can be watched live on TV, and statistical information and commentary about previous matches is readily available from a number of sources.
Although one obviously has to be aware of injuries and fitness issues, form in tennis is generally a very good guide to future performance. This means that when a good player is on a roll, a bettor can usually make money for as long as the roll continues, simply by betting on them to win.
As well as the obvious outright result of a match or tournament, it is also possible to bet on a wide variety of other variables, including the number of sets each player will win, the number of aces scored, how long a match will last and even the number of delays that will be caused by inclement weather!
