How Does the Tennis Scoring System Work?

For our bettors in the UK that are new to tennis, the scoring system proves to be rather confusing. Not to worry, however, as we’ll be explaining everything you need to know. First of all, a game of tennis is made up of the following “building blocks”:

• Points
• Games
• Set
• Match

The way it works is like this: a player needs to score a number of points in order to win a game. In fact, he must score 4 points whilst also being ahead of the opponent by a minimum of 2 points. Then he’ll need to win a number of games to win a set.

Similarly, to win a set, he must win 6 games and be at least 2 games ahead of the opponent. Then, to win the match, he’ll need to win a number of sets over his opponent. After winning 2 or 3 more sets than the opponent, he wins the match!

Wimbledon Open

It will come as no surprise that one of the most popular tennis events in the UK is Wimbledon. There is hardly a more anticipated tournament, which is why Wimbledon betting is so exciting for the tennis-loving sports-bettor in the UK.

One of the many aspects that makes Wimbledon stand out from the rest is that it’s the only Grand Slam event to take place on grass. Moving on, Wimbledon is held in London, generally between the end of June and the beginning of July.

Both men and women compete in this prestigious event, vying to be the best. In fact, the winner of Wimbledon is generally thought to be one of the greatest tennis players in the world. Due to this, the Wimbledon matches prove to be rather thrilling games!

US Open

Next on the list of top tennis events is the US Open. It’s one of the biggest majors on the tennis calendar and the most famous one in the US. Hosted in New York, the event takes place each year from August to September.

In terms of succession, this event is the last Grand Slam that takes place during the year. This tournament has alternated between different court surfaces: starting out with grass, then trying out clay, until settling on the current hardcourt.

Roland Garros (French Open)

Roland Garros, or the French Open, is the third in the list of Grand Slam events. It stands out from the others as this is the only one that’s played on clay courts. This is known to be a hard surface for many athletes to play on.

It can really influence the outcome for each player, as they have different preferences when it comes to the surface they play on. Held in Paris, the event is usually hosted between May and June, and is generally considered as the toughest tournament to play.

Australian Open

Last, but hardly least, is the Australian Open, which is the youngest of the Grand Slams. Despite being the youngest of them all, it’s also considered to be a very prestigious tournament, and it’s actually the most valuable one.

Moreover, it’s also the first Grand Slam that takes place in the year. In fact, it’s generally held during the last two weeks of January. The Australian Open is also played on a hardcourt, after having switched out its previous grass court.

Tennis Betting Markets

We mentioned markets on tennis in the previous section but exactly are they? To put it simply, these are the bets that are available to make at an online sportsbook and betting site. They’re offered by bookmakers on various sports.

Moreover, they can be on anything that occurs in a particular sport or sporting event. For example, when betting on tennis, you can play a stake on who you think the winner will be, who will win the first set, how many points will be scored, etc.

Betiton™ has a vast list of markets to choose from; our markets don’t only offer events and matches, but you can also play on players. That way you can vary your bets in order to change it up a little.

Feel free to browse the available markets on our site to get a feel of the range we offer. Bear in mind that you can also use these for live betting. A few examples of what markets we offer on our sportsbook can be found below:

• Winner Full Time: this wager requires you to correctly guess who the winner of a match will be.
• Set Betting (Correct Score): for this bet, you’ll need to stake on what you think the final score of the match will be.
• Handicap Games: a handicap is a penalty imposed on the favourite of a match in order to ‘even’ the competition and give bettors better odds. This penalty is on the number of games the favourite needs to win. You’ll need to bet on who you think the winner will be after the handicap is applied.
• Over/Under Games: for this wager, we’ll be giving you a number of games that we think will happen over the course of a tennis game. You simply need to bet on whether you think there will be more (over) or less (under).
• Sets Handicap: this is another handicap bet; however, this time there’s a penalty on the number of sets that need to be won.

Tennis Betting Odds

If you plan on betting on tennis, it’s best to understand the odds that come with the available markets. This is because odds tell you how likely it is that an event will actually occur as well as how much you stand to gain from a successful bet.

Odds can be written in different formats, which are: decimals, fractions, or American. As a general rule, UK bookmakers use fractions, but it’s possible to switch between the different options to find the format that suits you best.

Odds represent the probability of an outcome and determine your potential winnings. When it comes to tennis betting odds, Betiton provides three different formats. Let’s discuss each of these odds formats below:

• Fractional Odds: This traditional format, such as 3/1 or 5/2, shows the potential profit relative to the stake. For example, a 3/1 bet implies a £3 profit for every £1 wagered, plus the return of the original stake if successful.
• Decimal Odds: The most common odds format, decimal odds (e.g., 4.00 or 2.50) reveal the total return, including the initial stake. For instance, a bet placed at 4.00 odds would result in a £4 return for every £1 staked.
• American Odds: These odds come in positive and negative forms (e.g., +300 or -150). Positive figures denote potential profit on a £100 bet, while negative odds display the amount needed to win £100.
