Iga Swiatek has been the top ranked player in women’s tennis since April 2022. Swiatek had her most successful season last year winning the French Open and the US Open, and she is now looking to claim her third French Open title in the last four years. The 21-year-old is entering the prime of her career so she could soon put a stranglehold on this event as Swiatek performs better on clay than she does on grass or hard court. She steamrolled the competition at Roland Garros last year, dropping just one set on her way to the title. To highlight her dominance, in her final three matches, Swiatek lost a total of 12 games. She beat Jessica Pegula 6-3, 6-2 in the quarters, hammered Daria Kasatkina 6-2, 6-1 in the semis, and cruised to a 6-1, 6-3 win over Coco Gauff in the Finals.

The trendy upset pick is Aryna Sabalenka after Sabalenka bested Swiatek 6-3, 3-6, 6-3 at the Madrid Open two weeks ago. Sabalenka has dealt with a lot over the past year due to her Belorussian heritage, but she has been able to channel any frustration into improving her game on the court. Although she has yet to advance past the third round of the French Open, she has been performing very well at the other majors over the last two years. Sabalenka made it to the semifinals of Wimbledon in 2021 and was a semifinalist at the US Open in 2021 and 2022. She won her first major earlier this year by besting Elena Rybakina to win the Australian Open.
Speaking of Elena Rybakina, her performance at the Australian Open turned a lot of heads. She defeated Iga Swiatek 6-4, 6-4 to knock out the top ranked player and proceeded to beat both Jelena Ostapenko and Victoria Azarenka in straight sets before falling to Sabalenka in the finals. We saw Rybakina claim her first major at Wimbledon last year, and she is now the No. 5 ranked player in the world. Clay court isn’t where Rybakina is at her best though, so keep that in mind when looking at these tennis odds.
Barbora Krejcikova is one of five women with odds of less than 20-1 to win the French Open. She is one of the best doubles players in the world and has completed the Grand Slam in that regard, and she won the 2021 French Open. However, she was knocked out in the first round of last year’s French Open, and her best finish at a major other than the French Open victory was getting to the quarterfinals of the 2021 US Open and the 2022 Australian Open. She is 27 years old, and she might be more concerned with adding another doubles title to her resume than putting together a strong run herself.
Finally, there is Paula Badosa. She is a clay court specialist as a Spanish native, and her idol growing up was Rafael Nadal. Badosa has only been a quarterfinalist once before at a major, and that came two years ago at this event. After pulling out of the Australian Open, she is a bit of a wild card, and she has not been performing well in recent weeks. That makes her a player to avoid at this price.
