Sinner was eliminated earlier than the King of Clay, suffering a shocking second-round upset at the hands of Juan Manuel Cerundro, who had pre-fight odds of 32-1 to win and live odds of 100-1.<\/p>\n<p>With Sinner&#8217;s early exit, Alexander Zverev filled the hole in the favorites and is currently +185 to win the men&#8217;s tournament at Roland Garros. 24-time major champion Novak Djokovic is next at +330, with Casper Ruud (+800) and Rafael Jodal (+850) rounding out the players under 10-1. Before the tournament, Zverev was the second-shortest player on the board at 12-1.<\/p>\n<p>Sinner wasn&#8217;t the only one faltering in the first two rounds. Daniil Medvedev (50-1), Ben Shelton (100-1), Taylor Fritz (100-1) and Alexander Bublik (100-1) all left early. Five top-10 seeds were eliminated in the first two rounds of the French Open, the most since 2004.<\/p>\n<p>There were also quite a few upsets on the women&#8217;s side early on. Most notably, Elena Rybakina, who had the third-highest winning odds at +650 and entered the tournament with decent support from the betting public, lost her second match, as did Jasmine Paolini (60-1). Jessica Pegula, a favorite among bettors at 50-1, lost her first match.<\/p>\n<p>Iga Swiatek (+220) and Aryna Sabalenka (+240) remain favorites to win, but they have swapped the top spot several times. Popular plays Coco Gauff (+550), Amanda Anisimova (28-1), and Naomi Osaka (50-1) all saw their odds improve slightly.<\/p>\n<p><em>for men and for women<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.espncdn.com\/i\/espnicons\/SVG\/external.svg?w=10&amp;h=10\" width=\"10\"\/> Odds from DraftKings Sportsbook at time of publication.<\/em><\/p>\n<aside class=\"inline inline-table\">\n<h2 class=\"table-caption\">2026 French Open winning odds<\/h2>\n<\/aside>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jannik Sinner entered the 2026 French Open as the clear favorite to win -300, but he has the second-lowest pre-tournament odds at a Grand Slam since at least 1990, and the shortest since Rafael Nadal (-400) at the 2009 French Open, who was upset in the fourth round.
