TENNIS BETTING: Rafa Nadal is the new world number one following his success at the French Open yesterday and the Spaniard is now 888Sports 11/4 second favourite to win Wimbledon.
Roger Federer remains Paddy Power‘s 11/8 favourite with Andy Murray 5/1 at totesport.
Stan James were once again left ruing their offer of money back on the outright market placed prior to the start of the French Open if Rafael Nadal won the title without dropping a set as the Spaniard gained revenge on last year’s defeat to Robin Soderling by beating the Swede 6-4, 6-2, 6-4 in Paris earlier this afternoon.
Head of PR Charlie McCann: ” It’s a question of two down and one to go having also refunded losing bets on the outright market in the T20 World Cup when England triumphed. If Spain win the World Cup beginning in South Africa on Friday it will be a most unwanted hat-trick for ourselves that’s for sure.”
