Tennis Betting Tips: Sinner to prove too much for Bublik again

It was another disappointing day at the office on Wednesday as none of my three tennis picks were successful. I'm hoping to turn things around on Thursday.
Check out my Tennis Betting Tips below, which come from Nottingham, Queen's and Halle.

Set Betting - Katie Boulter to beat Sonay Kartal 2-1 @ 3/1
After winning the WTA event in Nottingham for the past two years, British star Katie Boulter will be hoping to defend her crown at her local tournament. She cruised to victory against Lulu Sun of Australia in the first round and now she is set to take part in an all-British tie against Sonay Kartal, in what is going to be a first meeting between the pair.
Boulter has an incredible record on this surface and her performances here over the last couple of years provides her with the confidence to take more risks than she probably would do normally.
This is going to be a tough test for Kartal but it will serve as a valuable experience in the 23-year-old's development. She looked good against Leolia Jeanjean last time out and she may just pose a few problems for her opponent.
Boulter looked a bit rusty at Queen's last week but she oozes composure in Nottingham and she looks unstoppable. I think she will progress, but I think this match could go the distance.

Game Handicap - Jaume Munar +5.5 vs Carlos Alcaraz @ 11/8
Carlos Alcaraz will be hoping to extend his title success at Wimbledon into a third-straight year this summer and following his heroics to come from two sets behind in the Roland Garros final against Jannik Sinner, you wouldn't want to bet against him.
Just like last year, he has had little preparation in the build-up to the Championships and his appearance at Queen's on Tuesday was his first since the French Open. The Spaniard defeated Adam Walton in straight sets but each of them were close.
This has me thinking that there could be value in covering his next opponent, Jaume Munar, with a handicap advantage. Munar received a walkover against Jordan Thompson last time out, so he is likely going to be more refreshed than Alcaraz coming into this match.
Of course I am expecting Alcaraz to get past Munar, but I don't think it will be as dominant as many would expect based on his last showing.

Game Handicap - Jannik Sinner -4.5 vs Alexander Bublik @ 6/5
World number one Sinner is probably still thinking about how he lost to Alcaraz at Roland Garros but the Italian is a resilient individual and it will only spur him on to ensure nothing like that happens again.
He is competing in Halle as part of his preparations for Wimbledon and his next match comes up against Alexander Bublik, whom he defeated in the quarter-finals at the French Open.
Both players looked sharp in the first round in Halle but this is going to be a much more demanding contest for Bublik given the rhythm Sinner is in. Not many players can touch him when he's in form.
Bublik will prefer the conditions here to Paris but I still don't think it will be enough for him to get revenge on his opponent. I think Sinner will once again prove too much for the Kazakh star, and I think he's worth covering with a -4.5 handicap.
