So. Wimbledon, eh?
White clothes. Green grass. Strawberries and cream. Celebs in the crowd. It’s lovely stuff, really, despite it all being about as twee as a 48-year-old semi-pro competitive knitter who refuses to swear either in public or private and calls their cat “Wubby Dubby”.
What’s not so lovely, however, is when you back someone to win the thing and they end up crashing out in the first couple of rounds.
Which is why we’re delighted to present our “Flop Insurance” offer.
If you back a player from the men’s or women’s draw (or both) to win outright, we’ll give you your money back as a free bet if your selection fails to make the Quarter Finals of Wimbledon 2019.
No, seriously. We truly are that generous.
On top of that, we’re also running a Power Up offer for the tournament.
All you have to do is to place a £/€10 or more single at odds of 1/5 or greater on an in-play Wimbledon match and you’ll earn a free Power Up. You can then use that Power Up on tennis at any stage within the following 24 hours. The offer applies to all Men’s and Ladies’ Singles or Doubles matches, as well as Mixed Doubles matches.
Oh, and there’s one more thing before you go. In order to make things better for you when punting, we’ve amended our tennis betting rules.
Industry standard tennis rules hold that if your player (or players if it’s doubles) retires after the first set ends, they are deemed a loser and the player/team that progress is a winner. But Paddy wants to have our punters’ backs, so our rule is that if a player retires after the first set we void the player who retired.
As an example, if Andy Murray – who’ll be there playing in the doubles draw – retires hurt after the first set, you’ll get your stake back on him and his partner. Can’t say fairer than that.
