Tennis Live Scores

ScoresLive offers live tennis results from the full ATP tour, the WTA tour, the Grand Slams, the Masters 1000 events and the Davis Cup. The scores update point by point during every match in play, showing the set, the games in the current set, who is serving and the tie-break score.

There are four Grand Slams a year. The Australian Open is played in January in Melbourne. Roland Garros, on clay, is held in Paris in May and June. Wimbledon, on grass, is in London in June and July. The US Open, on hard court, is in New York in August and September. Men's Grand Slam matches are best of five sets and women's are best of three. They are the most prestigious events in tennis and award the most ranking points.

Jannik Sinner of Italy holds the top spot in the ATP ranking in 2026, after winning the Australian Open and the US Open in 2024. Carlos Alcaraz of Spain, a four-time Grand Slam champion, is his closest rival. Novak Djokovic, with 24 Grand Slams, remains competitive despite his age. On the WTA tour, Aryna Sabalenka of Belarus and Iga Swiatek of Poland have dominated, both with several Grand Slams to their names.

Yes. Sports betting in Nigeria is licensed at state level, with a minimum age of 18. After the November 2024 Supreme Court ruling, state regulators such as the Lagos State Lotteries and Gaming Authority (LSLGA) license operators, while the former National Lottery Regulatory Commission's federal remit is now limited to the Federal Capital Territory. Operators such as Bet9ja, SportyBet, BetKing, Betano and Betway offer markets on the Grand Slams and the Masters 1000 events.

Wimbledon 2026 is played in late June and early July 2026 at the All England Lawn Tennis and Croquet Club in London. It is the oldest and most prestigious Grand Slam, and the only one still played on grass. It begins on the last Monday of June and runs for two weeks. Wimbledon draws large television audiences in Nigeria and generates strong betting interest.

The Masters 1000 events are the highest-ranking tournaments on the ATP tour after the Grand Slams. There are nine: Indian Wells, Miami, Monte Carlo, Madrid, Rome, Canada, Cincinnati, Shanghai and Paris. Winning a Masters 1000 awards 1000 ranking points. They bring together the world's best players and are effectively compulsory for the elite.

Tennis is one of the more popular sports for betting in Nigeria. The markets include match winner, correct set score, first set winner, total games over or under, game or set handicap, aces markets and the tournament outright. Wimbledon, the US Open and the Australian Open generate the biggest betting volumes. Operators such as Bet9ja, SportyBet and BetKing offer full tennis markets. For ages 18 and over only.

The rules vary between bookmakers. Many void the bet entirely if a player retires before the match is finished. Others pay out if the first set is complete and your player was ahead. Always check your bookmaker's retirement rules before betting, especially at big tournaments where a mid-match retirement is more common due to heat or physical strain.

The handicap in tennis applies to games or to sets. Backing a clear favourite at -4.5 games means they must win the match by at least 5 more games than their opponent across all sets. A set handicap of -1.5 means they must win 2-0 in straight sets in a best-of-three match. The games handicap offers good value for dominant clay-court specialists against lower-ranked opponents.

The set score bet asks you to predict the exact result of the match in sets. In a best-of-three match, the options are 2-0 or 2-1 for either player. In a best-of-five Grand Slam, the options include 3-0, 3-1 or 3-2. A 2-0 on a clear favourite pays little, but correctly calling a 2-1 can pay much more than a simple match winner bet.

Yes. Over or under markets for the total number of aces are available at the leading betting sites. Big servers often exceed 20 aces per match. You can also bet on a player to hit a certain number of aces or to serve more aces than their opponent. Grass-court matches, such as those at Wimbledon, produce many more aces than clay-court matches.

Your bet stays live until the match finishes, as long as it is completed within the tournament schedule. Rain delays can change the momentum of a match dramatically, and the surface changes when it gets wet. Players with greater mental strength often benefit from breaks when they are ahead. Some bettors look for cash-out opportunities when clouds gather during a close match.

The ATP governs men's professional tennis and the WTA governs women's professional tennis. Both tours run parallel seasons with Grand Slams, Masters 1000 events, called WTA 1000 on the women's side, and end-of-season finals. The Grand Slams award equal prize money to both. The Davis Cup is the men's team event and the Billie Jean King Cup is the women's.
