French Open 2021 Live Stream Free UK

After being postponed to the Autumn in 2020 due to the Covid-19 pandemic, the 2021 French Open is business as usual and will be taking place in May and June.

As Rafa Nadal goes for his 14th title, we take a look at where you can stream the French Open for free in the UK and where you can watch it on UK TV. Additionally, we’ll also take a look at the best French Open odds, predictions and the best UK betting sites for tennis.

French Open 2021 - What You Need to Know

So one of the world’s most iconic tennis tournaments is back on track after a tough year - and here are the details that you need to know. 

The French Open 2021 starts on Sunday May 30th and continues for two weeks through to Sunday June 13th. Qualifying for the tournament began on Monday 24th May and will continue through to Friday May 28th.

Due to French Covid-19 restrictions, the event was delayed for a week to await the easing of measures. In turn this has allowed fans to attend with tickets still currently on sale. Considering the fact that last year the tournament was postponed for over six months, we can let a little week-long delay slide here.

Men’s French Open Betting Odds, Tips and Predictions

When it comes to the UK betting odds for the French Open, there are no surprises when it comes to the bookies’ top picks. Spain’s Rafael Nadal is the favourite to win the tournament at odds of 5/6 with 888sport. The 34 year old Mallorcan is gunning for his 14th French Open title in a bid to cement himself as one of the greatest tennis players of all time.

Fellow tennis GOAT contender Novak Jokovic is the bookies’ second favourite at odds of 7/2. The 34 year old Serbian arguably tips his Spanish counterpart in terms of ability, but simply can’t match Nadal’s prowess on clay.

Swiss veteran Roger Federer will return to the tournament, but is still thought to be struggling following lengthy time out with a knee injury. Despite this, the 39 year old has gone on record as saying “this is my last chance to do something great”. The bookies clearly don’t see that “something great” as a likely possibility, with the Swiss player a rank outside, with odds ranger between 33/1 and 66/1 on UK betting sites.
