Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic Tipped for ATP World Tour Finals

Shane Lambert - 17 Nov 2009

Top doubles team in the world has odds that are valuable enough to bet.

Doubles doesn't get a lot of attention in tennis but Daniel Nestor and Nenad Zimonjic are certainly worthy of betting.  Neither player was all that great during their singles careers although Nestor had some notable upsets in his time as, once upon a time for example, he took out Stefan Edberg.  If I recall Edberg was ranked number 2 at the time and fresh off of one of his US Open titles.  

Nestor's big serve made him a dangerous player back in his youth despite never cracking the top 50 and that serve has kept him playing tennis even at the age of 37.

He and his teammate Nenad Zimonjic currently lead the futures market for doubles at the ATP World Tour Finals.  They are on top form heading into the event and fresh off of wins in  both Paris and Basel.  Currently they are riding a 9 match winning streak.

Paddy Power have set Nestor and Zimonjic at +175 (7/4) to win the ATP World Tour Finals doubles event.  Their most significant challenger is the team composed of American twins Bob and Mike Bryan as Paddy Power has that team set at +300 (3/1).

However Nestor and Zimonjic have defeated the Bryans in their last five head to head matches.  Those matches were all big tour matches as well as they took place at the final in Basel, in the final of Cincinnati, at the Wimbledon final, in the Rome final, and at the final in Monte Carlo.

Nestor and Zimonjic have shown that they are significantly better than their closest rival, something that makes odds of +175 (7/4) look like a good value pick.
