The 2019 U.S. Open will run from Monday, August 26, when the main draw matches begin, until the men’s final on Sunday, September 8. This Grand Slam, the fourth and final one on the tennis calendar each year, dates back to 1881. The tournament was originally contested on grass, but then it switched to clay until 1977, when it took its current format. The USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center in New York City serves as the host venue, and the defending champions are Novak Djokovic and Naomi Osaka. If you are considering including U.S. Open betting over the next few weeks, here is some basic information about the tournament to help you get started.

Who’s the favorite on the Men’s Side?
On the men’s side, Novak Djokovic is going for his fifth Grand Slam title in his last six attempts. He defeated Roger Federer at Wimbledon last month, as part of the longest final ever in the history of the venerable tournament — and he also won the Australian Open in January. Rafael Nadal won the French Open championship back in June. Djokovic has 16 major titles in his career, and he currently sits as a -110 favorite to win this year. Nadal (9/2), Federer (6/1), Zverev (16/1), Tsitsipas (30/1), Thiem (30/1), Wawrinka (30/1) and Kyrgios (30/1) sit further down the odds list. One player who has been considered overrated in that odds list is Alexander Zverev. His former coach, Ivan Lendl, severed ties with him recently, citing issues away from the court that are keeping Zverev from performing his best.Who’s the favorite on the Women’s Side?
On the women’s side, Bianca Andreescu is a hot name. At this time in 2018, she was not in the top 100 in the world, and now she is in the top 20. She has shown consistent mental strength; if you look at a lot of her matches that go to a third set, she has won a lot of them in close fashion, such as with 6-4 and 7-5 scores. She is 7-0 against top-ten opponents, including a win over Angelique Kerber in the Indian Wells final. A crowd favorite will be Serena Williams. She will have a schedule that allows her a day off between matches, and she has made the finals of three majors in the last 13 months. A player who has become more and more of an enigma is Madison Keys, who might have the best power stroke in all of tennis. However, it is fairly easy to frustrate her, and once she gets frustrated, the unforced errors pile up in bunches.
