Tennis Betting Rules

Below is a typical example of a set of betting rules that a bookmaker could use when offering betting on tennis. Please bear in mind that individual bookmakers may use a variation of these rules.

a) Outright Betting: All in compete or not.

b) Match and Set Betting: In the event of a match starting but not being completed all match and set betting will be void. In the event of a change in the total number of sets played match bets will stand, but set betting will be void. For example, a match originally designated as 'best of 5 sets' reduced to 'best of 3 sets' because of inclement weather. Bets placed after the semi-final stage will be classified as match bets, and in the event of the match starting, but not being completed, will be declared void.

c) In the event of any of the following circumstances taking place all bets will stand:

A change of playing surface.
A change of venue.
A change from indoor court to outdoor court or vice versa.

d) Any bets accepted after a match has started will be deemed void, win or lose.
