2024 U.S. Open Men?s Tennis Betting

Friday, August 16th, 2024

As is the case with the women?s singles championship at the 2024 US Open, the men?s side is even with several realistic choices. Recently, the dominance of Novak Djokovic has waned. Although Djokovic remains near the top of the Association of Tennis Professionals rankings, there is a new generation of players who are catching up and ready to take the mantle away from the man many consider the GOAT of the sport. One of those new emerging stars is Carlos Alcaraz, who opened as the favorite to win the 2024 US Open. Other popular choices include Jannik Sinner and Daniil Medvedev.

2024 Wimbledon Championship Men?s Tennis Betting

Tuesday, June 25th, 2024

It appears as though the baton has been passed with the loss of Novak Djokovic in last year?s Gentlemen?s singles final. Carlos Alcaraz won his first Wimbledon title besting the betting favorite in five sets. At the time Alcaraz was ranked No. 1 in the world by ATP, so I guess it wasn?t a complete shock. Now in his late 30s time is running out on Djokovic to match Roger Federer for most Wimbledon singles titles and as the tournament nears we still don?t know if Djokovic is going to play due to a

While the battle for the 2024 French Open title will likely consist of Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic, the attention will be directed at Rafael Nadal, who is rumored to be playing his final season on the ATP Tour.

He may be getting up in age but Novak Djokovic remains the king of men?s tennis.

2023 U.S. Open Men?s Tennis Betting

Monday, August 21st, 2023

Carlos Alcaraz may not be a household name in the casual gambling sector yet, but that is rapidly changing. Alcaraz is the big new thing in men?s tennis and will be a contender for years to come. The emergence of Alcaraz sets up a potential classic showdown of young vs. veteran in the 2023 U.S. Open men?s tournament. Novak Djokovic is the established brand in men?s tennis. And he is a three-time U.S. Open champion. However, Djokovic suffered the biggest career loss in the 2021 U.S. Open. Djokovic lost his bid for a calendar grand slam at the hands of Daniil Medvedev. But the wily veteran has two Grand Slam titles this year to remain in the elite class.

Thursday, June 29th, 2023

Novak Djokovic is a massive negative odds favorite to capture his fifth consecutive Wimbledon singles title and eighth overall, but he isn?t even the top seed for the sports grandest event. Adhering to the ATP rankings, the All England Club slotted No. 1 ranked Carlos Alcaraz as the top seed. Now, it?s not like Djokovic is fading or anything like that rather he hasn?t played as often and thus dropped in the rankings. Djokovic hasn?t played in a month since winning his record 23rd Grand Slam titl

Novak Djokovic is a solid favorite to win his seventh Wimbledon title. The 2022 Wimbledon tournament begins on Monday, June 27. Djokovic is listed as the odds-on favorite with no other player listed with odds of less than 7-1. It is a watered-down field, as World No. 1 Daniil Medvedev is inexplicably not being allowed to play simply because he is Russian, while World No. 2 Alexander Zverev is injured. Djokovic has won Wimbledon six times, including each of the last three times and there is no qu
