15th June, 2009
In just 7 days time the world will turn its attention to the greatest tennis tournament in the history of the sport. Now in its 132nd year, Wimbledon is the only Glam Slam tennis tournament to still be played on grass.
With two weeks of fierce competition due to descend on SW19, online bookies have already opened markets on the blue ribbon event, the Men’s Singles.
Ladbrokes, Coral, and Paddy Power all Price five time winner Roger Federer at 1/1 odds on favourite, while British number one Andy Murray is 11/4 with Sky Bet. Following an inconsistent season last year’s champion Rafael Nadal is third to win, with Murray second favourite.
Since winning the men’s only Queens Club Championships at the weekend, many bookmakers have shortened odds on Andy Murray to become Wimbledon Champion.
The Scott has won against both Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, however when asked of his chances to win Wimbledon he said, "Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are the favourites - I'm in the group behind."
Despite this Murray’s mood is described as confident going into next week’s tournament and it is likely the British public will be backing him at 3/1 with BetFred and Paddy Power.
