Played in Melbourne in late January, the tournament attracts massive crowds on-site. The Australian Open is the highest-attended Grand Slam tournament and at its pre-Covid peak in 2020, drew more than 810,000 fans. Cumulative audiences in the tens of millions watch the action in Australia and internationally via television and streaming services. Punters also love the tournament, with Betfair offering those looking for Australian Open tips a full suite of expert information and analysis on all players and matches and wagering categories aplenty covering all the action during the two-week tournament.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The event has a rich history. Originally named the Australasian Championships, it was first played in 1905 on grass courts in St Kilda in Melbourne\u2019s inner-south. The tournament moved around Australia for many years and was even played twice in New Zealand until 1972, when the Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club in inner-Melbourne became its home. The Open continued to be played on Kooyong\u2019s grass courts until the late-1980s, when a larger and more modern facility was opened near the MCG in the city\u2019s sporting precinct. The 1988 move to what is now known as Melbourne Park also came with a permanent January spot on the calendar and a shift from grass to hard courts.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As a Grand Slam tournament, the Australian Open features the full range of events: men\u2019s and women\u2019s singles, men\u2019s and women\u2019s doubles, mixed doubles, and wheelchair and junior events. Fields for the singles events feature 128 players, with seven victories required for a player to be crowned singles champion. With tennis generally in recess in November and December while players are on a break, form can be hard to gauge leading into the Australian Open, which is preceded by only handful of smaller warm-up events in Australia and abroad. The lack of exposed form at that time of the year and uncertainty over the preparation and fitness status of some players, often including some of the biggest names in the sport, means it is imperative that bettors closely follow the latest news provided by Betfair\u2019s tennis experts, as well the data-driven analysis designed to help with tennis tips and betting strategies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Since the move to Melbourne Park in 1988, international players have dominated both the men\u2019s and women\u2019s singles events. On the men\u2019s side eight players have won multiple titles, led by Serbian Novak Djokovic (with a record nine), Swiss Roger Federer (six) and American Andre Agassi (four). It\u2019s been a similar tale on the women\u2019s side, with seven players capturing the tournament at least twice in that time including American Serena Williams (six times) and German Steffi Graf and Yugoslav-turned-American Monica Seles (four apiece).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Until Ash Barty\u2019s popular victory over American Danielle Collins in the 2022 women\u2019s singles final, no Australian had won the Australian Open singles since 1978 when Chris O\u2019Neal won the women\u2019s crown. Barty shocked the tennis world soon after her victory when she announced her retirement from the game. Mark Edmondson (1976) remains the last local winner of the men\u2019s title. Aussies Thanasi Kokkinakis and Nick Kyrgios took the men\u2019s double title in 2022. Barty and the Kokkinakis-Kyrgios team attracted a wave of interest from bettors during the 2022 tournament. Betfair\u2019s tennis experts were all over the Aussies\u2019 form and prospects as they made their way through their respective draws and the unique, data-rich information they compiled helped punters with their Aus Open tips.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For the 2025 tournament, Betfair is again framing multiple markets with bettors able to wager on all matches. Punters can consider backing specific players head-or-head, for example, or focus on set-related betting. They also can place considerations while matches are being played. Betfair, Australia\u2019s largest betting exchange, also offers bettors the chance to back or lay an outcome.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">For all the latest expert news and information and up-to-the-minute data analysis from tennis experts including Australian Open tips and unique betting strategies, sign up to Betfair today.<\/span><\/p>\n\n          <\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n      <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n        ","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ace Previews provides Australian Open Tips across select matches throughout the Australian Open.
