The tennis betting season is almost over with the final Grand Slam of the year, the US Open coming up at the end of August.
While he is still around Rodger Federer, will always be the favourite and it’s no difference at the US Open this year. Rafael Nadal is second favourite to win the tournament with Andy Murray in close third.
Federer had poor showing at the French Open and Wimbledon, but he is now playing some of his best tennis of the year after recently winning the Cincinnati masters title.
The draw for both Federer and Nadal seems kind with no real tough challenges before the last eight.
Andy Murray has been showing some good form recently. He beat both Federer and Nadal in the Rogers Cup, but was clearly tired in the Cincinnati Masters when he lost to Mardy Fish. If the right Murray shows up to the US Open, then he can make the final, where he will probably face either Federer or Nadal.
Novak Djokovic, fourth favourite for the US Open, is not quite up to the standard of the top three and does face a tough battle after round three, having a potential meeting between either Marcos Baghdatis or Mardy Fish. It’s hard to see him having much impact in the later stages of this tournament.
Can Andy Murray win his first Grand Slam title at the 2010 US Open? Only time will tell.
