Wimbledon odds on the men’s side have seen a lot of great champions throughout the years. In the last 16 years of Wimbledon betting there have been a total of six men’s champions.
Wimbledon in 2009 favor Roger Federer as he looks to win his 6th Wimbledon title. He had his five year winning streak in Wimbledon broken last year by Rafael Nadal. Can Federer come back and win in Wimbledon in 2009? Usually when a player has had a long winning streak in Wimbledon odds broken he has not come back to win again. Bjorn Borg won five straight Wimbledon betting odds titles in the late 1970’s but when John McEnroe beat him in 1981 that ended the five year streak and Borg never won in Wimbledon odds again.
Wimbledon odds are the only tennis odds of the four majors played on grass so that makes picking a winner different than in other events. The first Men’s Wimbledon winner was Spencer Gore who won in 1877. British players dominated the early years at Wimbledon simply for the fact that almost all players who entered the tournament were from Britain. That changed in the 1900’s when more players from other countries started playing and Britain players have never done anything since. In fact, the last British player to win Wimbledon was Fred Perry in 1936.
Online betting information tells us that Britain players are always looked at to have a chance in Wimbledon odds but year after year they fail. Tim Henman came the closest to winning in Wimbledon odds as he made the semifinals a few times but still never made the final in Wimbledon betting odds. Recently the British public has fallen in love with Andy Murray in online betting and his Wimbledon odds this year are as low as ever at 3-1. Those Wimbledon betting odds are really too low considering Murray has really never done anything to make him worthy of an online sports betting contender’s role at Wimbledon.
History has shown a lot of dominance by certain players in Wimbledon odds. Bjorn Borg dominated the 70’s, John McEnroe and Boris Becker the 80’s, Pete Sampras the 90’s and Roger Federer this past decade.
Online sports betting on Wimbledon this year should be exciting on the men’s side as Roger Federer tries to win his 6th Wimbledon title.
