Just like the recently concluded Wimbledon tournament in London, the upcoming US Open promises a lot of great matchups and potential betting opportunities. The US Open will run from 24 August 2025 to 7 September 2025, marking the final Grand Slam tournament of the year.
The current No. 1-ranked player, who also won the Wimbledon tournament, is the only player from Italy ever to claim the top rank. Betsmith offers betting odds coverage for the major and minor tennis tournaments in both men's and women's categories.
Betting on tennis requires a good understanding of the sport, including the tournaments you can bet on and the types of tennis odds available. Here's a quick breakdown.
There are many tennis events played worldwide, but the most notable ones are the Grand Slam tournaments, the ATP Tour, and the WTA Tour.
The Grand Slam is a collection of four of the most prestigious tennis competitions, organised by the International Tennis Federation (ITF). Grand Slam events are organised for men and women and include singles, doubles, and mixed doubles matches.
Here are the four Grand Slam tournaments:
Note that, since each Grand Slam event takes place just once a year, tennis betting odds are not available all year round.
The ATP Tour is a series of men's tennis competitions organised by the Association of Tennis Professionals. The events in the ATP Tour are organised all year round, meaning you have a constant stream of matches to bet on.
Some notable competitions under the ATP Tour are:
The Women's Tennis Association (WTA) organises multiple competitions for female tennis players, and some of the most important are:
Between betting on tennis match winners, set winners, and tournament winners, there are a lot of odds for you to consider. Here are some of them.
Probably the most popular odds for tennis fans to bet on, the winner bet predicts which player will win a match. The value of the match winner odds depends on how likely a player is to win, with an underdog having a higher odds value.
The total bets focus on how many games or sets will be played in a tennis match. This bet comes in an 'Over/Under' format, meaning you bet on the minimum or maximum number of sets to be played.
For example, you win an 'Over 19.5' bet if the total number of sets is more than 20, while you win an 'Under 22.5' bet if the total number of sets is less than 22.
These bets give the favourite player a handicap, reducing the advantage they have over their opponent. 'Handicap' bets are common when one player is much more likely to win.
Rather than betting on tennis match winners, the set winner focuses on predicting the winner of an individual set. Bookmakers typically make this bet available for the winner of the first set.
'Outright' bets focus on a tennis tournament as a whole, predicting which player will win the entire tournament.
When betting on tennis, here are some tips that can help improve your experience:
Tennis betting is exciting because the sport itself is fun, and you can win money, whether you are a serious tennis fan or a casual watcher. Betsmith is a good destination for you to place your tennis bets, as our live betting feature and high odds improve your betting experience.
Tennis is a fantastic sport for live in-play betting as the game slows down between points. That fits nicely with live market updates, which at Betsmith happen quickly for speedy, convenient betting opportunities.
Guided by in-game stats, a huge number of in-play tennis markets can be explored. Following live tennis odds creates opportunities that pre-match markets often can't. If a big pre-match underdog is playing exceptionally well and potentially on course to upset the odds, for example, that option can be sized up with live odds.
'Rapid Markets' are another strong feature of live tennis odds. This is where the outcome of the next point or the next game can be chosen. Everything from the 'Correct Score' to 'Player Prop' bets can be found in live odds on tennis.
In-play tennis betting can be taken even further with live streaming. Here at Betsmith, you can discover plenty of free, high-quality live streams, which can be viewed on the same page as the live match odds.
The bet and watch feature allows you to closely track the form of the players, their confidence, and things like their first serve percentage as it's all happening on the court.
With full and partial cash-out options available for betting on tennis, there is a chance that you could settle a tennis bet early. The primary benefit of an early settlement offer, which will be at a percentage of the original odds, is to lock in some profit.
But on the flip side, it can be used to avoid suffering a full loss of stake on a tennis bet that is heading in the wrong direction.
With many tennis matches played across different tournaments on the same day, it is a popular sport for accumulator bets, another area in which the cash-out feature at Betsmith can play a big role.
