How to Bet on Tennis – Beginner’s Guide
Tennis is unlike any other sport in that the conditions in which it is played are very important. This means that the very material of which a tennis court is made can be the deciding factor in who wins and who loses. So before you bet the farm on your latest favorite player, it's best to understand the surfaces of the game and how they can (or can't) work to your buddy's advantage.
Hard Court Tennis
This refers to the typical tennis court seen on television during major tournaments. As the name implies, tennis is played on a hard court surface when watching these particular tournaments. Almost every major professional or regional men's or women's tennis tournament is played on either an outdoor hard court or an indoor court. The big exceptions are the French Open, which is played on red clay, and Wimbledon, which is played on grass. But if you watch the U.S. Open or the Australian Open, you'll see court surfaces very similar to what you see in this game.
Grass Tennis
Much faster than a hard court match, grass court tennis favors players who can serve with lightning speed. This means that as the ball glides across the court, the effort to return it tests the opponent's timing and strength. Both Pete Sampras and Roger Federer have served this way. Both have also returned the ball, to use another tennis metaphor, by winning the Wimbledon Grand Slam, the world's most famous lawn tennis tournament, no fewer than seven times each, a number that also makes their victory at the All England Club the most they have achieved together to date.
Clay Court Tennis
This court is perhaps the most demanding and challenging of all tennis courts. Players' shoes must grip the surface, which allows a player to slide, but the ball moves more slowly and is more controllable. That's why players are good at hitting returns, and that's why rallies seem to last forever. The Open, played on a court that is now mostly sun and shade, is the premier clay court tournament and is best known for its association with a player named Rafael Nadal.
TZ Tennis Betting Odds
In Tennis, we offer the best odds on tennis matches. While you can win money betting on the outcome of the match, your returns will be significantly different from those you would win by betting on tennis props. Here are some of the popular bets you can place at the top sports betting sites in Tanzania.
Live/In-play Tennis Bets
The most profitable tennis bets are called in-play bets. These bets are placed on the next immediate move in the match. The most common bets are on which player will win the next point or the next set. The beauty of in-play betting is that you can make as many bets as you want until the match is over. Bettors who enjoy live betting can really have fun with in-play betting.
Outright Winner Tennis Bets
Players in TZ bet on which tennis player will win the tournament after all the matches have been played. It's a simple bet. The player who wins all his tennis matches wins the tournament.
Tennis Match Bet
This bet is for bettors who wish to predict the winner of an individual tennis match. After all points have been counted and verified, the player with the most set points is declared the winner. If you have a hunch that the favored seed will not win, go ahead and pick the underdog and increase your risk for a bigger reward.
Handicap Betting
Some tennis matches are predictable based on the players' rankings. For example, if the number one ranked player, Novak Djokovic, plays an unseeded player, the outcome is pretty obvious. However, in order to increase the payout, punters opt for handicap bets. These are similar to spread betting in that they predict how many points the underdog will score, even though they are actually going to lose the match.
Tennis Prop Bets
These bets go beyond the score of a tennis match. You are betting on events around the tennis match, what will or will not happen. A classic example would be betting on how long the match will last or future betting on which players will be in the final.
Over/Under Betting
Betting on the final score of a tennis match and the number of sets it will take to complete the match. These bets are especially good for players who aren't sure which way the match will go.
Tennis Betting Strategy & Tips
We don't just base our Tennis predictions and picks on past results. When it comes to making our Tennis predictions, we also take a good look at the profiles of the players involved, their head-to-head history and how well they perform on the particular type of court they play on. These stats combine to form our best tennis strategy and make our picks as good as they can be for both beginner and professional bettors. Here are the basic strategies we use to place our tennis bets.
- Tennis is a fast-paced sport, and the outcome of matches can be decided in a matter of moments. It is important for players to understand the differences between men's and women's tennis. Women's tennis is much more direct and to the point, while men's tennis goes on for much longer. In fact, it has more... eeeeh, to decide the match.
- If you don't have time to watch the whole tournament, next-best prop bets are an excellent option. They allow you to bet on what you think will happen before the tournament starts.
- Individuals betting on tennis outcomes would be well advised to pay close attention to certain developing players, especially in the lead up to major events such as a Grand Slam. Some of these up-and-coming talents have not only risen through the ranks, but in recent years have claimed victories over the kind of established stars - like Roger Federer or Rafael Nadal - that most bettors have historically considered safe picks.
- Betting on athletics leaves no room for emotional bets, and tennis is no exception. If you have a special loyalty to a particular player, do not let that influence your decisions. Back the player most likely to win, and let the resulting cash flow line your pockets.
