The US Open will officially kick off on August 24th First round match For men and women’s tournaments. US Open is the last Grand Slam event of the year and one of the most anticipated tournaments on the tennis calendar.
Last year’s tournament was won by Aryna Sabalenka and Jannik Sinner, both of whom will be the No. 1 seed this year.
Sabalenka is currently repeating as a champion at +285 and second only to Iga Swiatek at +240. Meanwhile, the sinner is repeated at +110, preferring to slightly outweigh the +175 rival Carlos Alcaraz. With some of these odds in mind, let’s take a look at some of the best betting options to consider in both men’s and women’s tournaments this year in New York.
Open man bet
Finalist Name: Jannik Sinner vs. Carlos Alcaraz (-110) -The odds are not juicy at all here, but that’s because the Grand Slam finals of Sinner vs Alcaraz became formal. There are some concerns surrounding the sinners after he cited the illness and withdrew from his Cincinnati Open Final with Alcaraz. But for the sinner, a high-level athlete with the best possible resources at his freedom, there was plenty of time to recover. Alkaraz is just as dynamic as the sinners, and it’s pretty shocking that either person will not be able to make the finals enough.
3rd quarter winner: Novak Jjokovic (+140) – Djokovic is certainly at the flaws of his career, but when he has to face things like sinners and Alkaraz, he is still very good and consistently competitive. Djokovic’s next most likely man to win a quarter is Taylor Fritz at +330, with Holger Rune behind +700. Djokovic holds a direct 10-0 record against Fritz, including three wins in the Grand Slam event. Djokovic also has a rune and head to head and head to head and head from rune and 4-2, including winning the latest three meetings. He’s one more run to Djokovic’s semi-finals.
Winner: Carlos Alcaraz (+175) – Though we completely ignore the open situation in Cincinnati of sinners, we still like Alcaraz here. The pair have met seven times since 2024, and Alcaraz holds a 6-1 record in those matches. That includes three hard court victory (at Wimbledon this year, Thinner’s only victory was a victory in Grass). Thinner is popular for winning tournaments at +110, but we are riding on history and the direct results of recent years to get better odds at Alcaraz.
Open a woman’s bet
Winner: Mira Andreva (+1100) – At least one pick must be mixed with long odds, and Andreeva will fit the bill. Andreva has a very soft path to the semi-finals. In the quarter, she should be able to push her up to Jessica Pegra in the quarter-finals. However, Pegra tends to reach her own way, so she’s +400 to win +300 at Andreva, despite being a higher species. Once things reach the semi-finals, Andreva needs to play great tennis, but she can, and is worth a small play at +1100.
Fourth Quarter Winner: Iga Swiatek (-165) -Swiatek is popular for winning the entire tournament with +240. So it makes a lot of sense to get a good price for her to reach the semi-finals. Amanda Anishimova is the most difficult challenge in Sweet’s quarterly bracket, and as good as Anishimova, it is impossible to erase the image of absolutely slaping her in the Wimbledon final when playing her best game. Swiatek isn’t always at his best on the hard court, but things are set well to help her win the quarter, if not the entire tournament.
“Big 3 vs Field” (-185) – “Big 3” of this bet in Draftkings is Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek and Coco Gauff. These are three favorites to win the tournament, with the latest three women winning the US Open. To put all three together over -200 is an absolute stolen. Bundle this bet with a long shot like Andreeva feels like the right path to success.
