US Open Betting Update PT 1

The action continues to unfold at Arthur Ashe Stadium in Queens, New York as the US Open Championship is well underway with many of the top tennis stars in the world in the mix to lift their respective trophies in this massive Grand Slam event. You can bank on some great prices still being available - even if you’re looking to back some of the favourites in both the men’s and women’s competition.

There is also some great value out there in the doubles tournament and, though it can be harder to handicap this type of event, there are some very solid prices out there. 

Since we are still in the early stages of the competition, much of the top talent have seen their prices relatively unmoved as many of them (Naomi Osaka in particular) have had a few walkovers and unchallenged contests against more minor opposition. 

Novak Djokovic is still trading as the outright favourite in the men’s competition and you can back him around a ⅚ margin to lift the trophy once again. He has been tricky to wager on at times because his temper tends to get him in trouble at key moments. His performance in the Olympics left a lot to be desired and there will be more than a few looking to bet against the Serbian as the tournament unfolds. 

One has to wonder how the weather and the temperature is going to affect things as a lot of the top talent can struggle when things start to get humid as the tournament goes on. This can lead to withdrawals and players being unable to take the heat in both the literal and figurative sense.
