US Open tennis betting has been available for some time at PinnacleSports.com, and despite Roger Federer’s momentous defeat by Rafael Nadal in a classic five set Wimbledon, the Swiss master was the early the favourite on PinnacleSports.com’s US Open tennis betting. However, Federer’s early exits at the Cincinnati Masters and Beijing Olympics, along with Nadal’s gold medal in China and his replacement of Federer as World no.1 (after a record 237 weeks) have prompted a huge swing in the US Open tennis betting toward the Spaniard. Rafael Nadal is now the 2.700* to win the US Open and cap his best ever season with a hat-trick of Grand Slam wins after success at Roland Garros and Wimbledon. Despite a hugely impressive record at Flushing Meadows Roger Federer, is now second favourite can be backed to win the US Open at odds of 4.000* a price that would have been unthinkable at the start of the season.

Nadal has enjoyed a break-through away from clay, and winning his first two tournaments on grass, there seems no reason why he can’t improve his record at Flushing Meadows. His best performance on the US Open hard courts is a quarter-final in 2006, but on the evidence of Wimbledon and the Olympics, the King of Clay can continue his metamorphosis from a clay specialist, to an all-rounder, to convince US Open bettors.

Federer – End of an Era?

Tennis gamblers will have to judge how Roger Federer reacts to his recent collapse in form at a venue where he has been virtually unbeatable. History would point to a Federer win, as he is looking for a fifth straight US Open win, while he has also won 35 hard court events, whereas Nadal has won just six times on the surface. Though magnanimous in defeat, the Federer Express was devastated by the Wimbledon defeat to Nadal on his favourite surface, leaving him without a Grand Slam win this season, while there was no consolation at the Olympics, where his chance of ever winning gold may now have passed. Though most neutrals would love to see a Federer-Nadal rematch after the drama at Wimbledon and Paris, there are several players capable of breaking that Grand Slam final monopoly. Novak Djokovic pulled up a surprise at the Australian Open in January on the new Plexicushion surface which closely resembles the DecoTurf used at Flushing Meadow, boosting his chances in the US Open betting market. Djokovic is 4.500* at PinnacleSports.com to succeed; US Open bettors should bear in mind that the Serb beat Federer in Melbourne in straight sets, though his shock second round exit at Wimbledon is less encouraging for those looking to back Nole in the two way US Open betting at PinnacleSports.com.

Andy Murray has risen to number six in the world on the back of his first Masters win in Cincinnati, but his inconsistency was highlighted by defeat in the first round of the Olympics to a player ranked 77 in the world.
