Top Tennis Tournaments for Your Bets

At 1w, you can bet on all four Grand Slams plus ATP and WTA Tour events running throughout 2026.

Wimbledon

Wimbledon is the oldest Grand Slam, played on grass courts at the All England Club in London each July. The grass surface favours big servers and net players, which creates distinct betting patterns not found on other surfaces. In 2026, top contenders include Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic on the men’s side, and Iga Świątek among the women’s favourites. Markets available include match winner, set betting, and total games. Odds shift quickly during Wimbledon due to high betting volume, so tracking line movements is essential.

  • Fast grass surface rewards aggressive serve-and-volley play;
  • Men’s and women’s draws attract the highest global betting traffic;
  • Live betting markets update point by point during matches;
  • Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic are top men’s picks for 2026;
  • Iga Świątek leads the women’s ante-post markets.

US Open

The US Open is played on hard courts at Flushing Meadows, New York, each August and September. Night sessions under the lights create unpredictable conditions, especially for outdoor matches exposed to wind and heat. The hard surface produces balanced results, making it one of the most competitive Grand Slams for bettors. In 2026, names like Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, and Aryna Sabalenka are expected to lead the markets.

  • Hard court surface produces competitive results across all playing styles;
  • Night session matches introduce wind and fatigue as key variables;
  • High-volume betting on quarter-final and semi-final rounds;
  • Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz are men’s ante-post favourites;
  • Aryna Sabalenka is among the top women’s picks.

Australian Open

The Australian Open opens the Grand Slam calendar each January in Melbourne, played on hard courts under summer heat that can exceed 40°C. Extreme heat affects player endurance, making set betting and total games markets particularly interesting. The tournament regularly produces upsets as heat and schedule fatigue build across two weeks. In 2026, Novak Djokovic, Jannik Sinner, and Aryna Sabalenka are among the leading market selections.

  • Held at Melbourne Park on DecoTurf hard courts;
  • Extreme heat impacts player stamina across long matches;
  • January start makes it the first major betting event of the year;
  • Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic lead the 2026 men’s markets;
  • Aryna Sabalenka enters as a strong women’s favourite.

Roland Garros

Roland Garros is the only Grand Slam played on clay, held in Paris each May and June. The slow clay surface extends rallies, rewards baseline players, and significantly reduces the effectiveness of big servers. This creates a more predictable market environment for experienced bettors who understand clay court form. Carlos Alcaraz and Iga Świątek are the standout picks for 2026 on their preferred surface.

  • Only Grand Slam played on clay courts at Stade Roland Garros;
  • Slow surface favours baseline players and heavy topspin game styles;
  • Longer rallies increase total games markets’ appeal;
  • Carlos Alcaraz is the men’s top pick on clay in 2026;
  • Iga Świątek holds the strongest clay court record in the women’s game.

Odds can shift significantly after a break of serve or a momentum swing, so monitoring the live feed before confirming a bet is recommended. The mobile app supports all live betting features available on the desktop platform.

Tips for Successful Tennis Betting

  • Analyse player form: Check a player’s results over the past four to six weeks, including retirement history and injury reports, before placing any bet;
  • Review head-to-head records: Some players hold consistent advantages over specific opponents regardless of overall ranking; H2H records on clay, grass, or hard courts are especially useful;
  • Account for court surface: Clay slows the game and favours baseliners; grass rewards serve-heavy players; hard courts produce the most balanced results across playing styles;
  • Track recent tournament load: Players arriving at a tournament after a deep run the previous week may show reduced physical performance across long matches;
  • Manage your bankroll: Set a fixed stake per bet, typically 1–5% of your total balance, rather than adjusting stakes based on confidence level;
  • Use pre-match markets for value: Ante-post odds on tournament winners often carry better value than match-by-match betting, particularly for top seeds in early rounds;
  • Cross-reference live stats: During live betting, use the in-match statistics panel on 1w to identify patterns before placing or adjusting a bet.
