The biggest wins in Wimbledon betting
The Wimbledon tournament, one of the four Grand Slam tournaments, attracts millions of fans and tennis betting enthusiasts every year. The grass courts of London become the arena not only for spectacular matches, but also for incredible success stories of those who place bets.
Jannik Sinner vs. Carlos Alcaraz: the 2025 final
The 2025 Wimbledon men's singles final between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz was one of the most talked-about events of the tournament. This match attracted a lot of attention not only because of the status of the players — the first and second rackets in the world — but also because of the significant amounts that were bet on its outcome through Lucky Wands Casino. Alcaraz, defending his 2023 and 2024 titles, was considered the favourite, which was reflected in the odds. However, Sinner, who was in excellent form, managed to turn the tide of the game.
The match ended with a score of 4:6, 6:4, 6:4, 6:4 in favour of the Italian. The first set went to Alcaraz, who confidently used his serve and aggressive play on the back line. However, Sinner, known for his endurance and accurate shots, was able to seize the initiative in the second set. The key moment was Grigor Dimitrov's injury in an earlier match against Sinner, which allowed the Italian to save his strength for the final. This match was one of the biggest wins of the tournament, as many fans and bettors believed that Alcaraz would continue his winning streak.
Alex de Minaur — Arthur Kaso: the sensation of the second round
Another match that brought significant winnings was the second round match at Wimbledon 2025 between Australian Alex de Minaur and Frenchman Arthur Cazaux. Cazaux, who qualified and won the first round in a tough battle, was considered an underdog. However, his performance in the match against de Minaur surprised many. The Frenchman managed to take one set, but the Australian dominated, winning the match 3:1 (6:4, 6:3, 4:6, 6:2).
Particular attention was drawn to the bet on de Minaur's early break in the first game of the fourth set. One of the players risked betting about 8 million rubles on this outcome with odds of 1.38. Kaz, trailing in sets, started the game with his serve, and de Minaur got four break points. The Frenchman was close to holding the game, but the Australian still managed to convert his chance.
Flavio Cobolli - Jakub Menchik: an unexpected twist in the third round
The third-round match between Italian Flavio Cobolli and Czech Jakub Mencik was also among the most profitable for bookmakers, but some players still managed to hit the jackpot. Cobolli was not considered the favourite, but he won confidently in three sets (6:4, 6:3, 6:2). Despite his prospects, the Czech was unable to cope with the aggressive play of the Italian, who dominated on serve and capitalised on his opponent's mistakes.
One player bet more than 3.5 million roubles on Cobolli to win the third game of the first set on his opponent's serve at odds of 1.85. Mensik started the game confidently, bringing the score to 0:40, but Cobolli had three chances to break and eventually converted one. This risky choice brought the player a significant win, although the exact amount was not disclosed.
Shintaro Motizuki - Giulio Zeppieri: the drama of the first round
Another memorable story was the first-round match between Japan's Shintaro Motizuki and Italy's Giulio Zeppieri. This match turned out to be a real drama, stretching over two days due to darkness. Motizuki lost the first two sets (4:6, 3:6), but managed to turn the tide, winning the third and fourth sets (6:4, 6:3). The match was interrupted, and the next day the Japanese player completed his comeback, winning the fifth set 7:5.
One of the players bet on Motizuki to win during the match at odds of 1.22, when the Japanese player had already begun his comeback. This choice proved to be a successful one, bringing in a win of several million. The match was an example of how live betting, especially on players capable of turning the tide of the game, can bring impressive sums. Motizuki's perseverance and ability to cope with pressure made this match one of the most talked about in the early stages of the tournament.
