No matter if you've bagged yourself a ticket to cheer with the tennis crowds on (Andy) Murray Mound or if you simply plan to follow the tennis on the telly, we'll bring you the best betting bonus offers coupled with top tips of where to put your money. With several weeks to go until the first balls are hit at Wimbledon 2019, here's a few tips from Bookiesbonuses.com on where the smart early money is going.

Naturally, when talking about the Men's singles tournament the name Roger Federer springs to mind. Not only has the Swiss Maestro won three recent Slams, but his rivals in the Big Four have been unable to compete due to different injuries. Home favourite Andy Murray is currently struggling but will give it his all in his last Wimbledon start. Rafael Nadal won one Slam in 2018 and also went to the latter stages (semi-finals) of a Wimbledon tournament since 2011.

Outsiders like Marin Cilic look set to be threats, yet the bookies are still offering good value on outsiders including Cilic, last year's finalist Kevin Anderson (a whopping 25/1) and Juan Martin del Potro. The young German Alexander Zverev is currently ranked 5th in the world and is the most likely of the new breed to break the old guards' monopoly on the silverware. That said, no man from outside the Big Four has won Wimbledon since 2002 - so the bookies may be right!

In the Ladies' singles, Serena Williams is scheduled to make her comeback after giving birth to a daughter named Alexis in Sep 2017. She's missed the last four Grand Slams due to her pregnancy, but its no surprise to see her name sitting atop the bookies favourites for the Ladies' singles despite her extended break from the game. Can she hit top form at the right time to reclaim her Wimbledon title? The defending champion, Garbiñe Muguruza, missed the 2018 Australian Open due to injury and doubt remain about her fitness. Two-time (2011, 2014) Wimbledon champion Petra Kvitová ought to be able to put together a strong challenge and give Williams and Muguruza a run for their money.

New to tennis betting? Then it's worth keeping hold of some betting money for when the action starts. If you hold an account with a bookmaker that offers live in-play betting there's a huge range of options when it comes to betting during tennis matches.
