What Are The Most Tennis-Loving States; Maryland Ranks High

The home of Maryland sportsbooks is a hotbed for sports of all kinds. Tennis is no exception.

Tennis is on our minds after the Australian Open. So BetMaryland.com used Google Trends to conduct a 5-year study of data, with the period ending Jan. 28, 2025, to find search interest scores for “tennis” and “tennis court near me.” Then we ranked the top 10 states based on total search interest scores to find the most tennis-loving states.

America’s Most Tennis Loving States

This data is exclusive to BetMaryland.com, where the best Maryland sports betting promos are always available.

Maryland scored 132 points in search volume interest for the terms “tennis” and “tennis court near me” to rank ninth among tennis-loving states. That devotion is more impressive when you consider that some of the states above Maryland have warmer weather and thus more opportunity to play tennis, at least outdoors.

Top Maryland Players On Tour

Frances Tiafoe (pictured above), who is No. 18 in the ATP rankings as of Jan. 29, was born in Hyattsville, Maryland. The highest-ranked current WTA women’s player with area connections is No. 93 Hailey Baptiste, who was born in Washington, D.C.

In the year’s first Grand Slam, the Australian Open (which concluded on Sunday in Melbourne), Tiafoe was seeded No. 17 but was ousted in the second round by unseeded Hungarian Fabian Marozsan in five sets. Baptiste lost in three sets to Germany’s Laura Siegemund in the first round.

Maryland produced one of the greatest men’s players in tennis history, Potomac-born Pete Sampras. He won 14 Grand Slam singles titles between 1990 and 2002, capping his career with the 2002 U.S. Open title, and his seven championships at Wimbledon trail only right-time winner Roger Federer.
