ATP Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships Betting Defending Champion
Is it world number one Novak Djokovic who is the defending Dubai Champion, and he has won the event for the last three years running now. The Serbian is in the UAE and gunning for his fourth straight title. He triumphed over Roger Federer in last year’s final and he holds a 20-2 match record at the tournament on his way to the three titles. Little surprise that the Djoker is going to be one of the leaders of the pack for the event, and surprisingly this is only the second event of the year for Djokovic. His only previous outing was at the Australian Open where he successfully defended his title, so he will be refreshed for his attempt at Dubai, a tournament which he clearly enjoys. After a successful first round opener, Djokovic has now won sixteen straight matches at the event. You back up his world number one status with the incredible tournament history and the Serbian makes for a pretty strong option in ATP Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships Betting.
ATP Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships Betting Favourite
The defending champion is also the favourite in the betting market for the event. No great surprise there for anyone really. You could pretty much put anyone in the same draw as Djokovic and the Serbian would be favourite. That’s the status of the man at the moment, and while there is a meeting against Janko Tipsarevic on the cards for the quarter finals, the biggest test would be a semi final clash against number three seed Andy Murray. It takes a lot to go against backing Djokovic whenever he turns up anywhere really. After his comfortable start back into action from the Australian Open, a clear front runner.
Other Contenders
Roger Federer will want to have his big say at this event. After picking up the title in Rotterdam recently, Federer still has ambitions of getting back to world number one. Like Djokovic, Federer has a very impressive record in the ATP Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships Betting, having lifted the title here four times in his career, the most recent being back in 2007. Federer holds a 29-4 match record at the event going into it, and has to be confident after his recent success in the Netherlands, where he beat Juan Martin del Potro in the final. It is Del Potro who is again likely to be the biggest threat to Federer from the bottom half of the draw, and the Swiss superstar makes a good option because Djokovic and Murray will clash in the top half. That leaves Federer to deal with either Jo Wilfried Tsonga or Del Potro on the way to final is his half of the draw. Andy Murray will be looking for a Dubai improvement, as he hasn’t been past the quarter finals here in his past two attempts back in 2008 and 2009. Murray has shown stronger signs of improvement this year and after pushing Novak Djokovic all the way in the Australian Open semi finals this year, he could set up another rematch with the world number one at the semi final stage of ATP Dubai Duty Free Tennis Championships Betting. Naturally because Murray has to face Djokovic, that puts him back in the pecking order behind Djokovic and Federer. Argentinean Juan Martin del Potro reached the final of Rotterdam in a busy season so far for him, as he continues to work his way back into the position of being a top four challenger. Del Potro really complements a very strong field here, so too Tomas Berdych, who lifted the title in Montpellier around a month ago, and reached the semi’s Rotterdam. So a good field, but naturally the betting is going to be dominated by Djokovic, Murray and Federer.
