Tennis is one of the most attractive sports for sports betting bettors due to its wide variety of interesting markets and the simple fact that unlike football where there is also the option of a draw, in tennis one of the two always ends up winning participants.
It may seem silly, but every player has a favorite surface. Rafael Nadal, without going any further, is called the 'King of the clay' due to his absolute dominance on clay. Perhaps it is not the best example, since Rafa is one of the few tennis players who are good at all surfaces, although it is clear that clay is where he has shown the most dominance throughout his sporting career. At the same time, there are players who are 'allergic' to grass and who fail to perform well on the surface at Wimbledon. So every time you go to bet on tennis, keep in mind what surface the tournament is played on.
Once you are clear on what surface the tournament you have decided to bet on is being played on, the next thing you will have to take into account is the altitude. Yes, it may be played on clay, but playing in the Monte Carlo Masters 1000 has nothing to do with playing in Madrid. Although the surface is the same, the altitude greatly changes the sensations of the tennis players. The Monte Carlo tournament is played at practically sea level, which makes the ball go much slower in the air as there is more humidity in the air. However, Madrid is a city that is about 600 meters above sea level, therefore there is less humidity and the bounce of the ball is much higher.
Of course, tennis players have their own favorite tournaments in which they are more comfortable and enjoy both the courts and the city itself. For example, the Swiss Roger Federer has won the tournament in his hometown Basel 9 times. Feliciano López, a grass specialist, managed to win the prestigious Queen’s tournament twice, where the man from Toledo is like a fish in water. That said, keep in mind which cities tennis players prefer, in what physical condition they arrive at the tournament and what results they have achieved in recent years in said tournament.
Another very important thing is to look at the number of points that each tennis player defends from the previous year. Generally, the tennis players who have reaped a good result the previous year, tend to leave their skin on the court so as not to subtract points.
Surely you have heard many times about ‘stage fright’ or the expression ‘having him as a son’ that Alex Corretja used to use in his speeches as a commentator. For those who have never heard of it, the expression ‘having a tennis player as a child’ means that one tennis player has the measure of the other. This was clearly seen at the beginning of the rivalry between Rafa Nadal and Roger Federer, when the Swiss even came to recognize that before the matches he tried to motivate himself in the mirror knowing that Rafa had won the moral battle. So the next time you bet, keep this detail in mind and you will be better off for sure.
It is very important to know the style of play of each tennis player. It is not the same to bet on a match between Ivo Karlovic and John Isner than on a match between Pablo Carreño and Diego Schwartzman. In the first it is highly probable that we will see more than one tie-break (therefore betting on a long match) while in the second it is more likely to see a contested match, but with more break opportunities. Depending on the surface, each tennis player performs better or worse. Servers tend to prefer fast surfaces, while 'currantes' prefer slower surfaces.
We live in the modern era of sport and it is clear that social networks provide us with information that is not usually reflected in the quotas of the matches. Following a tennis player on his Instagram can help us a lot. Through Instagram, for example, we can find out what type of diet they usually take, how much time they dedicate to training or even in the case of some, if the night before a game they have been partying or not (see the case of Nick Kyrgios that in Acapulco he dedicated himself to partying every night and still managed to win the tournament).

Yes, it is obvious, but there is nothing better than watching tennis matches to know the state of form of the tennis players. Try to watch as many tennis matches per day as possible. Only then will you get a very clear idea of how the tennis players are really playing.
