French Open betting for the 2009 French Open heavily favors Rafael Nadal at the online sportsbook.This could be a historic tournament for Nadal who is looking to break Bjorn Borg’s record of four straight titles. Gamblers that bet on French Open odds will find Nadal a 1-4 favorite to win this year’s tournament.
French Open so heavily favors Nadal that the next player on the odds board is Roger Federer at 12-1. These French Open betting odds on Nadal are even higher than what you would see on Tiger Woods in golf when he was on his great run. Federer as the second choice in French Open is really given no chance to win by oddsmakers. At 12-1 he is just an afterthought next to Rafael. And Federer has run through the French Open field the past three years but then been crushed by Nadal in the Final every single time. In 2008 it was so lopsided in the Final that Federer only won four games. That is how dominating Nadal was in French Open last year.
French Open on the men’s side at the sportsbook simply is all about Nadal. There is just no reason to consider another player as you bet on French Open tennis action. Federer has proven he can’t beat Nadal on clay and the other men are not even as good as Federer who is past his prime. The only other men with French Open betting odds of less than 20-1 are Andy Murray and Novak Djokovic.
So what do you do with French Open at the sportsbook on the men’s side in 2009? Laying 1-4 on Nadal doesn’t hold a lot of appeal for gamblers who bet on French Open tennis. Betting Nadal in his individual matches will see even higher French Open betting odds so what do you do? What you can consider is some of the other online sportsbook matchups along the way with other players before the final. You might take a shot with a clay court specialist to pull off an upset against someone like Murray as you bet on French Open tennis. Or you might just decide that you want to focus on the women’s side in French Open betting. Unlike the men’s side, the women have a lot of contenders to consider in French Open betting this year.
