    ATP Challenger Tour...
    I personally think that it does not get enough love here or in general as far as betting purposes.With over 150+ events a season all over the world,with as much as 4 going on at one time,I would think their would be major advantages to a bettor if you did your homework,here is no possible way the books can follow all these lines and have the right prices.There must endless betting advantages.
    From time to time I check the results and I kid you not,sometimes 0 seeded players make it to the 2nd round,upsets abound,sometimes out of 32 matches in one tourney,I see 20+ dogs win.Granted this doesnt happen all the time,and the dogs are not as big as the regular ATP events,but I bet you dollars to doughnuts that the winning % for dogs is much greater than the ATP tour.
    Of course one must be selective is playing these,cause playing all dogs blindly wont win you $$,and 5 dimes is the only book for United States players that I know that has every line for all the matches.

    Would love to hear what input other folks on the forum have about the Challenger Tour.

    I love challengers, the odds are really good, its as though the books dont go through the trouble of properly capping the matches, lots of money to be made if you know your stuff

        I have trouble betting them because I don't know the lines far enough in advance. 5dimes hangs lines for them sometimes hours before the matches and sometimes not at all. If I don't have any action on the World Tour events I definitely look.

          They're good for parlays if you can find some edges - either older guys slumming it as bigger favorites to collect a check or just a lazy line.

              Yeah ATptennis is really the only resource one needs. Only thing they are largely missing is injury information.
