A couple of years ago, you’d have been given very long odds for Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal and Roger Federer to be the three favourites for the last Grand Slam of 2018, and yet here we are. Federer looked to be on the verge of a graceful decline, Nadal could have been forgiven for only challenging on clay and Djokovic’s injury problems reduced him to a shadow of his best. Yet the three legendary players defied expectations in the custom of the rest of their careers. With this magic trio tying up the top of the market, there is value below in players slightly underappreciated as a result of the star power of the favourites.
The US Open is in a unique position of the Grand Slams. Wimbledon and the Australian Open have been charitably shared among the leading players, while Nadal has been less generous with the French Open. The only two active players on the ATP tour with a Grand Slam to their name were made champions at the US Open. Juan Martin Del Potro looked on the verge of tour dominance when he stormed to the 2009 trophy, with only injury keeping the Tower of Tandil at one Slam title. Marin Cilic is the other, and because he has followed up this championship with regular runs to the business end of Grand Slams he represents interesting value at this year’s US Open.
Cilic can be found at a price of 16/1 at williamhill.com, making him the seventh favourite to strike gold at Flushing Meadows. Cilic can have no qualms about being behind the three favourites, although the attraction of getting behind Djokovic, Federer or Nadal is outweighed by the short price and minor doubts about their title-winning credentials. Djokovic won at Wimbledon but is still regaining full fitness, Federer notably didn’t win at Wimbledon while Nadal has a comparative weakness on hard courts despite being the reigning champion.

Cilic followed up his impressive 2014 title, in which he powered past Federer in straight sets and kept his nerve to beat Kei Nishikori in a battle of debut finalists, with a semi-final showing in the following year. In more recent times, the 29-year-old star has continued to shine at Slams. Cilic suffered a comprehensive loss to Federer in the 2017 Wimbledon final, but was able to demonstrate his true quality in this year’s Australian Open final as he pushed the Swiss great to a fifth set. Cilic may have fallen short, but in that final, he reiterated his Slam-winning credentials.
The other players shorter in price than Cilic are far less attractive than the Croatian. 9/1 for Alexander Zverev is unappealing for a player without a significant Slam victory to his name, while Andy Murray is incredibly unlikely to recapture his best in quick enough time to justify the same price. A peak Del Potro is an irresistible force, but 12/1 doesn’t sufficiently account for the inevitable fitness concerns that come with maintaining peak level across a fortnight. In terms of longer odds, 33/1 for Kevin Anderson and 40/1 for John Isner are somewhat tempting, although Anderson has failed to win a set in his two Slam finals and Isner is yet to make a mark at the US Open despite a long career. The US Open may have form in recent years for giving us new first-time winners of a Grand Slam, but the time has come for Cilic to add to his trophy collection.
What is the purpose of club membership?
Most members use the advisory to generate profits via bookmaker and/or exchange accounts. For someone staking £100 per match this has yielded thousands in profit even once the annual membership fee is deducted.
Will bookmakers limit my account(s)?
Most likely, yes. Club bets have a proven track record of value (+ EV) and bookmakers are likely to notice this. Short term you’ll be fine but longer term we suggest using betting exchanges or ‘winners welcome’ bookmakers or brokers. That’s why we always quote and record odds from Betfair Exchange for members as that illustrates profits for those who are limited.
How will it work after joining?
Your membership will be confirmed with a personal welcome email. You’ll get 12 months access from a single payment and there is no auto renewal – we’ll simply ask if you wish to continue after the year has elapsed. You should expect an average of two emails per week detailing the advised selection, match, tournament and odds. Simply login to your betting account and place a wager on the selected market. We only use standard match winner bets, often referred to as the moneyline, so coverage is extensive at virtually all betting portals. Have any questions? Please visit the contact us page. Average response time 24h.
Is club membership limited?
Yes, we allow a maximum of ten members to have an active annual membership at any one time. This is to preserve value and market liquidity. Essentially ensuring it’s practical to obtain the advised odds without them disappearing too quickly.
What bankroll is required?
We suggest £10,000 or more ideally although smaller can work. Most members choose to follow our advice of staking 1% per match. This means it automatically adjusts and scales as the total grows and compounds returns. In the above example; the member would have yielded over £3,000 profit but had to pay the membership fee leaving them with a net profit in excess of £2200. Some members have vastly exceeded this by staking higher amounts but please remember to have a long term focus and ensure capacity for successive losses.
What type of bets should I expect?
Always match winner bets covering men’s professional tennis. This includes ATP events, Challenger and Grand Slams. We specialise in high odds underdogs which have yielded the most considerable profits in extensive back testing. Selections with odds of 10/1 (11.00) are not uncommon. We deliver advisory emails at a consistent time with a minimum of six hours before the scheduled start time to ensure plenty of time to get bets placed.
Who is the club open to?
Everyone with a decent bankroll and a long term outlook. We have members from around the world betting in many different currencies and jurisdictions. Tennis Tips UK are based in the United Kingdom, hence the name, but the club is truly global.
How is profit tracked?
For transparency we operate a public spreadsheet. This shows all key metrics such as units profit, ROI, yield and strike rate. We even monitor the Avg Diff CO % for those statisticians amongst you. In a nutshell this measures the implied value by comparing the advised odds with the sharp closing line. 2% is deducted from all recorded profit figures to simulate exchange commission. Just to clarify bets are only added to the spreadsheet post result confirmation to retain exclusivity of access to paid club members.
For winning bets our team also publish profit reports which feature the original email sent to members for additional tracking and verification purposes. This also includes a rating for that specific prediction which gives an insight into how our strategy is optimised over time.
Who picks the bets for club members?
Tennis Tips UK have grown into a small team over the years. Founded way back in 2013 by an odds compiler at a leading EU bookmaker. Since then joined by a quant and business manager. Each one of us lives and breathes tennis but we like to let our results speak for themselves rather than make outlandish personal claims.
Why don’t you bet on your own picks if they are so good?
We do, frequently. The issue surrounds liquidity and limitations. Club members have access to a wide range of liquidity from global sportsbooks and exchanges. We, as individuals, are far more restricted. Typically though we still stake an average of £10k per week on our selections but unfortunately virtually every bookmaker has long since banned us. We should take it a compliment really as a limitation is an endorsement of the profitability of your bets from an often billion pound institution.
Is there a way to reduce the cost of membership?
The fee is set at a level which allows us to fill membership places. If you are a prospective first time club member enter the promo code ‘TTUK10’ during checkout to reduce the cost. Please note this is a one time discount and not available for returning members.
