Surprising the US Open puts Nadal at 20% chance of winning and Djokovic a 40% chance. I mean, I agree, but Nadal won 2 of the last 3 US Opens and leads Djokovic 2-1 there in H2H. You'd think bookies would at least have Rafa at 25% and Djokovic at 35%.

 

[Nostradamus]

what about that Italian stalian ? surely he is a threat at French open ?

not a surprise, in 2017 djok withdrew due to an elbow injury, it was a very bad year for him, this year he has had an injury issue again, and djoko is the better hard court player no doubt, plus h2h problem for rafa recently

More surprising is the fact that Federer still sits at 6/1 for USO. I mean, he probably has a higher chance to win Roland Garros again LOL.

 

[duaneeo]

Federer 6/1 for the US Open? 66/1 is more like it.

 

[duaneeo]

You beat me to the punch.

 

[ChrisRF]

Clearly I don’t see Federer winning the French Open (Nadal wins anyway), but seeing him equal with error machine FAA and behind Zverev is just absurdly strange.

 

[TimHenmanATG]

I'd certainly lay Djokovic for the AO. I mean, 6/4? - that's crazy.

 

[I Am Finnish]

Fedr has more chance to win RG than USO

Im serious really

They haven't played there in 6 years. That's too far away to matter much. The reason Djokovic is that much higher over him is because since then he is 8-0 on hardcourt without losing a set since that meeting at the USO 6 years ago.

 

[helterskelter]

St Nick in the top 8 odds in 3 of the 4 Majors.

That's because plenty of players who are more likely than him to make it deep have no chance of challenging the very top players. If you were to ask the bookies for odds on Kyrgios reaching the quarter-finals versus, say, Schwartzman or Goffin, they would likely give you shorter odds on the latter. But if you were to ask them for odds on the three winning the title, they would give you shorter odds on Kyrgios.

 

[helterskelter]

What surprises me about the odds isn't so much how far Djokovic is ahead of Nadal at the US Open but that Djokovic has equal odds at the US Open to Wimbledon and the Australian Open. I think his chances are highest at the AO, then Wimbledon, then the US Open. I'm not only saying that on past form but also and more importantly because the more time elapses between now and the tournament, the more chance there is of loss of form, injury, or emergence of new and younger rivals. The Australian Open is only just over four months away. The US Open is almost a year away. Especially when setting odds for an aging player - even though Djokovic is far from aged by today's standards, he IS aging, even by today's standards - it seems as though the odds should drift slightly as the tournaments get further away.

Roland Garros Men's Singles

1. Nadal 5/6

That's actually incredible.

 

[helterskelter]

That's actually incredible.

Why? Isn't it obvious that Nadal is prohibitive favorite for Roland Garros? If he's fit at the start of the tournament, I'd probably give him chances of more like 70-75%.

I mean, it feels obvious, but we're talking one man in an 128 man field.

 

[helterskelter]

Doesn't matter. He's won 12 times out of 15. The others aren't in the same skill level as him. Carreno Busta went on a long winning run in challengers a few years ago. Those were all 32 or 48 or 64 player draws, but he was just better than the rest of them. Nadal is just better than everyone else on clay.

 

[Midaso240]

How on earth can WIlliams be 2nd favourite at RG,the tournament that is historically her weakest and where she hasn't been a factor for the last 3?

 

[Lozo1016]

How on earth can WIlliams be 2nd favourite at RG,the tournament that is historically her weakest and where she hasn't been a factor for the last 3?

Oddsmakers still give her credit for being a great clay courter. She's 82-6 on clay since 2012. Serena might have a chance if she's in-form but that hasn't been the case since 2016.
