Day Three of the United States Tennis Championships begins at 11:00 am ET and we are looking to make a dent over at FanDuel and DraftKings on their main DFS Tennis slate.
I’ll leave the money line totals for you to consider and I fully expect each of the following four picks to win their matches Wednesday on Day Three of the U.S. Open.
Below are my top four DFS Tennis plays for FanDuel and DraftKings for Wednesday, August 28, 2019.
SerenaWilliams (-2500)
FanDuel:$23
DraftKings:$10,700
There’s probably not a way in the world you’re going to want to risk that much juice and I fully expect Serena Williams to give 17-year-old American Catherine McNally a pretty good beating under the lights on Wednesday night in Arthur Ashe Stadium. I’m even willing to pay the steep $23-dollar DFS Tennis FanDuel price tag to see her do just that. Williams is the overwhelming favorite to capture a record 24th Grand Slam title and opened her run with an impressive, 6-1, 6-1 victory over nemesis and former World number one Maria Sharapova. McNally was awarded a Wild Card into this event and won her first career Grand Slam singles match with an impressive 6-4, 6-1 win over Timea Bacsinszky of Switzerland.
PetraMartic (-208)
FanDuel:$18
DraftKings:$8,600
Martic advanced to the second round with a solid, three-set victory over Slovenian Tamara Zidanek and now faces Ana Bogdan of Romania. Bogdan defeated Britain’s Harriet Dart in straight sets to force this second-round showdown with the 29-year old Croatian. Martic holds a decisive 3-0 head to head record with two of her three victories on the hard courts. Martic is the #22 seed and ranked 140 spots higher than her counterpart and shouldn’t have any problems winning this match and getting you the DFS Tennis return. The two play the second scheduled match on Court 17 Wednesday.

ElinaSvitolina (-169)
FanDuel: $16
DraftKings:$8,400
Venus Williams is one of my all-time favorite people and she’s going to have her hands full against Svitolina Wednesday. Williams knocked off China’s Saisai Zheng in straight sets to reach the opportunity to play the current #5 Svitolina. The 24-year old Ukrainian defeated up and coming American Whitney Osuigwe in straight sets on Monday. Svitolina is 12-3 this season at the Slams and has a 2-1 career record over Williams with their latest a straight-set victory at Roland Garros. The daytime crowd at Louis Armstrong Stadium will clearly support Williams, Svitolina should get this one overwith quickly in Wednesday DFS Tennis.
FionaFerro (+126)
FanDuel:$14
DraftKings:$6600
Ferro is coming off an impressive straight-set win over Australian Daria Gavrilova and if she can continue playing this way, the sky is the limit for the 22-year-old Belgian. Her opponent, Kristina Mladenovic of France, is coming off an equally impressive win over Three-Time Grand Slam winner Angelique Kerber and I expect some DFS Tennis fireworks when the play opens Wednesday at 11 am ET on Court Five. Ferro has won eight of her last 10 hardcourt matches while her opponent is 2-3 this summer with the two opening up Court 11 Wednesday morning at 11 am ET.
