The first thing for gamblers to know about the women’s side of the 2024 US Open is that parity is the name of the game. Gone are the days of dominance by such players as Serena Williams. Instead, there is a revolving door of champions. As a result of this parity on the women’s side, there is an increased handicapping challenge for gamblers in assessing the value of each player and their chances to win. Offsetting the challenge is an opportunity for gamblers to find the normally elusive combination of value and ability. Last year, Coco Gauff was a great example of both of those traits by winning the US Open.
