Top ten players in bold....

Roger is the favorite at +200 to win the AO.

Meaning, $100 on Federer would win you $200- it's a 2-1 proposition.

Nadal and Potro at +400

 

[clayman2000]

Roddick has to be the best bet per value.

Although Querrey, Berdych and Gonzo have beaten Roddick before, he owns them all in slams. Del potro would be tough to beat, but hes come close to taking him out, and if the weather is in his favour, he could pull it off. For Roddick, not being in Fed's half is key.

After the Big 4, he may be the next best favourite

I like Monfils at +8000.... an outside shot... but he's playing well with his new australian coach rasheed.

Nadal at 4 is still good I think. For Federer you can get way better odds online.

I stuck a tenner on Rafa a couple of weeks ago when he was 6/1 (+600).

Bloody good value I thought.

i like how murray is so high up there when he hasnt really done much in slams at all.. in fact in roddick has done ALOT better in slams i the past year.

 

[Justin Side]

The Roddick odds are pretty crazy considering he's not even on Fed's side of the draw. Cilic is even listed as having a better chance than Roddick and he's never been past the QF at any Slam.

 

[Ledigs]

I'd take Djokovic. that's a nice sum

Roddick has to be the best bet per value.

Although Querrey, Berdych and Gonzo have beaten Roddick before, he owns them all in slams. Del potro would be tough to beat, but hes come close to taking him out, and if the weather is in his favour, he could pull it off. For Roddick, not being in Fed's half is key.

After the Big 4, he may be the next best favourite

I like Roddick's chances too. He's been to the semis 4 times. Plus, Del Potro is having wrist issues, Nadal is struggling against top 10 players and Roddick has to be confident against Murray after beating him at Wimbledon. And he's done well against Djokovic and Davydenko, two possible finals opponents.

The big question is, if Federer makes it through to the final, does Roddick have the confidence to beat him this time?
