How To Bet On Women’s Tennis
When you’re betting on tennis, there are two main ways to bet: to predict the outright winner of the tournament and the winner of each individual matchup. Take note of the odds next to each player’s name and if the odds show a minus sign, that’s how much you would bet to win $100. If the odds show a plus sign, that’s the amount you would win if you bet $100. You can also find spread betting options, which allows you to bet on who will win the match and by how much. For example, it could be one player -2.5 games, which means they would have to win by three games or more to cover the spread.
Prize Money and Points Breakdown
The points breakdown are the same for the singles and doubles draws: 280 points for the winners, 180 for the finals, 110 for the semifinals and 60 for the quarterfinals. Then, it is one point for the round of 16 on the doubles side, which is where that ends. It is 30 points for that round for singles, then one for the round of 16, 18 for the final qualifier, 14 for the third qualifier, 10 for the second qualifier and one for the first.
In terms of prize money, the singles champion gets $43,000, then it is $21,000 for the finals, $11,300 for the semifinals, $5,900 for the quarterfinals, $3,310 for the round of 16, $1,925 for the round of 32, $730 for the second qualifier and $530 for the first qualifier.

The doubles title was won by Ema Burgic Burko of Bosnia and Herzegovina, and Spain’s Georgina Garcia Perez, who defeated the Czech Republic team of Lenka Kuncikova and Karolina Stuchla in three sets.
