Tennis is a game of French origin, but they still played it indoors and against the wall. Tennis in the modern sense is associated with the name of an English military officer named Charles Wingfield. When the rules of “lawn” tennis were first laid down, there were already many bookmakers dealing with football in England, so betting on tennis soon appeared in their offer.
After that, only a few years had to pass, and the predecessors of today’s US Open, Roland Garros, and Australian Open entered the world of major sports events. They were soon followed in 1900 by the Davis Cup, the first international men’s team competition. Tennis has been part of the modern Olympic Games since the very beginning!
Interesting facts:

- The very first tennis court, which is still in operation today, was inaugurated in 1526 by VIII. Henrik.
- The Grand Slam is the combination of the first three major tennis tournaments + Wimbledon.

HOW DOES ONLINE TENNIS BET WORK?
Internet tennis betting now requires only that you have your own account with an online bookmaker, to which you have already paid a certain amount at least once.

You will need to verify your data later on, but at the latest before the first payment, with images of the relevant documents.
Pay to bet!
There will be bookmakers where you can already enter the currency of your player account on the registration form. For most service providers, this can be HUF, but this does not necessarily mean that the settlement will also be based on HUF. If you know how and want to play a lot, you can also withdraw a large welcome bonus in addition to your first deposit!

At most bookmakers, the payment condition is that you verify your personal data. This is called the KYC (know your customer) procedure. In such cases, the customer service will use the images you send to check whether the data you provided correspond to reality, and whether they match the data stored at your financial service provider. The payment will be made faster if you choose the same financial service provider with which you paid before. On most sites, the condition for payment is that you have placed the amount of your deposit at least once on bets.
