Tennis set betting calculator
Convert between match winner, set handicap, and correct score odds
Derive correct-score and set-handicap odds from match-winner odds — useful for tennis match strategy.
How tennis prices relate
Tennis match winner odds imply a per-set win probability. From that, you can derive correct score odds (2-0, 2-1, etc) and set handicap (-1.5, +1.5) odds. This is useful when bookmakers price these markets inconsistently — value often exists in correct score even when match winner is efficient.

Set handicap −1.5 Djokovic (must win 2-0) ≈ 2.07. If bookmaker offers Djokovic -1.5 at 1.85, that's poor value (true fair 2.07). If at 2.30, that's +EV.
