Best French Open Tennis Betting Tips Today: Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova v Tamara Zidansek
We start French Open Tennis betting tips today with a look at a rather unexpected semi-final lineup.
Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, who had never been beyond the quarters at any Grand Slam, has finally broken through.
The Russian took a battling, nervy win over Elena Rybakina in the quarter-finals. It was a long match, Pavlyuchenkova winning the deciding set 9-7.
This has now been a long campaign for the Russian who has been taken to three sets in each of the last three rounds.
It was third seed Aryna Sabalena in the third round, then 15th-seed Victoria Azarenka in the fourth round.
It may just be worth riding the experienced 9-year-old to take the victory.
She lines up against the unseeded Tamara Zidansek for a place in the showcase match.
Slovenia’s Zidansek has come from nowhere to land this place.
The 23rd year old in just her fourth French Open, not having made it past the second round in any of the previous attempts.
After an epic win over 6th seed Bianca Andreescu in the first round, Zidansek has not had as tough of a run as Pavlyuchenkova.
We think the latter leans on the experience to get this.
We expected her long matches to have caught up with her, but she is steaming along.
Antastasia Pavlyuchenkova to win at 4/7

French Open Tennis Betting Picks Today: Barbora Krejickova v Maria Sakkari
Whatever happens now in Paris there will be a first-time Grand Slam winner.
That’s partly thanks to Maria Sakkari who knocked the highest remaining seed left in the draw and defending champion Iga Swiatek out in the quarter-finals.
Sakarri looked completely in control of her destiny in that one. The Greek player has now dispatched two former Grand Slam winners in the last two rounds.
Without dropping a set.
She looks to be peaking brilliantly now, and that win over Swiatek was against one of the big clay players of the season.
We expect Sakkari to get the job done and reach her first Slam final in French Open Tennis betting for today.
She is up against the unseeded Barbora Krejcikova in the semi-finals.
The Czech player continued her fantastic run by taking out Coco Gauff in the quarters.
There was a lot of nervy play throughout that one, but Krejcikova got across the line in straight sets.
This is just the third appearance in the French Open for the former French Open doubles champion.
This just has been a staggering run out of the blue from her.
We just expect the collected head of Sakkari to handle this situation as she has looked tremendously dialled in.
Sakkari 2-0 set betting at 11/8

French Open Tennis Betting Tips for Today: Johanna Konta v Kateryna Kozlova
Today’s French Open Tennis betting tips features the home favourite at Nottingham this week, Johanna Konta.
It’s been a long year of trying to get over a knee problem that Konta has dealt with.
That lead to a not-unexpected early exit from the French Open.
So Konta is in Nottingham making the early move on to the grass courts for the season.
Konta produced a superb performance on the serve in her opening match in Nottingham.
That victory should have given her plenty of confidence.
It’s still a process back to the top of her game, but Konta looks more comfortable on grass than any other surface.
She has met Thursday’s opponent Kateryna Kozlova once before and Konta came out on the losing end of that one.
That previous fixture was at Indian Wells back in 2015 with Konta going down in three sets against the Ukrainian who is ranked 159th in the world.
Konta is ranked 20th still and we expect her to find a way through. Especially if her serve is back on point.
Konta 2-0 set betting 8/13
