There were plenty of big online betting events over the weekend and we have found three big winning bets where our canny punters got one over our trading team.

Please remember Spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses larger than your initial stake/deposit. They may not be suitable for everyone so please ensure you fully understand the risks involved.

IGA SWIATEK v AMANDA ANISIMOVA – SET 1 CROSS POINTS (SETTLED AT 243)

Those who paid to go to Centre Court on Saturday to watch the final of the Women’s Singles at Wimbledon may well have felt short changed that they only got to see 57 minutes. However, in just under an hour, they got to see one of the most impressive performances in a final as Iga Swiatek mentally and physically broke down a visibly emotional Amanda Anisimova.

It was the Pole’s first Wimbledon title, becoming the youngest woman to win all four Slams since Serena Williams and she did it in superb style, winning 6-0, 6-0.

That meant there were some big winning bets for our tennis spread betting punters who sided with Swiatek and one of the biggest came in the opening set. The Set 1 Cross Points spread was available to trade at 1020-1095 before play began, with Swiatek landing 27 points to take the first set. In response, Anisimova only produced nine points, which when multiplied with Swiatek’s score, saw the spread settle at 243, with sellers winning 807x their stake.

LEEDS RHINOS v ST HELENS – TRIES x SHIRTS (SETTLED AT 30)

There were high hopes that Leeds’ clash with St Helens on Friday night was going to be something of a thriller, but a drab game with plenty of errors saw Saints run out 6-0 winners. The Red Vee moved up to fourth after that win in a table that is tightening up at the top.

A low scoring match at Headingley on Friday night was always going to be good news for sellers and so it proved in the Tries x Shirts market. Young winger Owen Dagnall has made an impressive start to life in the St Helens side and he was the only tryscorer of the night when he crossed in the first half wearing the number 30 shirt.

With the spread settling at 30 against a pre-match spread of 588-622, sellers landed a huge win of 558x their stake.

SCOTTISH OPEN – CHRIS GOTTERUP WIRE-2-WIRE (SETTLED AT 170)

The Wire-2-Wire golf spread betting market sees a sliding scale of points awarded for finishing in the top four at the end of each round before the last and then a points scale down to eighth for the final leaderboard.

It produced a big winning bet over the weekend with the unheralded Chris Gotterup holding off Rory McIlroy to win the Scottish Open and in doing so, secure his place at Portrush next week.

The world number 158 shared the lead with McIlroy going into the final day and showed remarkable nerves to hold off the five-time major champion to win his second PGA Tour title.

Before the first round, you could trade Chris Gotterup Wire-2-Wire at 4-7, but with the 25-year-old taking the title, the market settled at 170, buyers won 163x their stake.

Please note that these are examples of winning bets from the past week, and it is important to remember that spread betting carries a high level of risk to your capital and can result in losses larger than your initial stake/deposit.
