Online tennis betting on Barclays ATP World Tour Finals

The Barclays ATP World Tour Finals started play last weekend, but this week the real headline matches are on the docket in London and at online sportsbooks Ladbrokes and bet365.

As of this writing (Monday morning CET), bet365 offers a fairly straightforward outright winner proposition bet; if you’ve got a weaknesses for betting underdogs, you might want to stay away from this one, as the sportsbooks pretty much have expect the three usual suspects to comprise the final matchup in one combination or another. Reads the bet365 table:

Roger Federer: 15/8
Rafael Nadal: 11/4
Andy Murray: 11/4
Novak Djokovic: 9/2
Andy Roddick: 18/1
Robin Soderling: 20/1
Tomas Berdych: 25/1
David Ferrer: 100/1

Tonight’s marquee matchup pits Nadal against Roddick; Ladbrokes has a number of interesting prop bets to go along with the action. Nadal is a big 4/11 favorite against Roddick’s 2/1. Before in-match live betting starts up, Ladbrokes offers a market on the outcome of the first three sets, which looks like this:

Roddick wins first two sets: 4/1
Nadal wins first two: 1/1

Roddick wins two of first three sets: 9/2
Nadal takes two of first three: 11/4

Ladbrokes has a further two dozen offerings on the Roddick-Nadal match (and this afternoon’s Djokovic-Berdych clash as well), including stuff on handicap wagering, total number of sets, the possibility of a tiebreaker during the match, and on who will break serve first, just to name a few.
