Wimbledon betting highlights the best in men’s and women’s tennis in the most important Grand Slam tennis event of the year. Wimbledon is the most popular of tennis betting tournaments. Gamblers that want to wager on either the men’s or women’s side of the draw can do so at the Wimbledon site.
Wimbledon has been popular for many years with some of the biggest names in tennis history winning the Grand Slam event. Champions like Rod Laver, Pete Sampras, Billie Jean King, Steffi Graf and others have made Wimbledon their own personal playground. Recently Wimbledon betting has seen Roger Federer dominate the odds at the Wimbledon betting site. Wimbledon betting has sometimes been delayed by rain but in the future it is expected that centre court will have a retractable roof.
Wimbledon is the only Grand Slam event to be played on the grass. In recent seasons, Roger Federer has made Wimbledon very one-sided as he has won the past five tournaments on the men’s side. Things are not much different on the ladies side in terms of Wimbledon betting as Serena and Venus Williams have dominated the odds at the Wimbledon site in recent seasons.
Wimbledon in 2008 will definitely have Roger Federer the favorite again but his time is ending and others will be on the radar including Rafael Nadal who routed Federer at the French Open and other contenders like David Nalbandian and Andy Murray. The women’s side of the odds in Wimbledon betting is wide open with the Williams sisters in the hunt in addition to French Open champ Ana Ivanovic. Also in contention are Maria Sharapova, Amelie Mauresmo and Jelena Jankovic.
Wimbledon is available in two main ways. You can wager on which player will ultimately win the tournament at the Wimbledon site or you can bet matchups. Some matchups are available early in the tournament at the Wimbledon site but most of the time they become available once the quarterfinals begin. These matchups have you betting one player against another and are very popular when the field gets down to the final eight.
