2023 Australian Open Odds: Novak Djokovic Favored To Reclaim His Throne
:focal(1456x474:1458x472)/origin-imgresizer.eurosport.com/2021/02/21/2999536-61546448-2560-1440.jpg)
The first Grand Slam of the tennis season is upon us as the 2023 Australian Open begins on Sunday. Each major has its own unique experience. The Australian Open is known to be the Happy Slam. But there is nothing happy about the summer heat that affects the players Down Under. Even with such a short offseason, the players on both the men’s and women’s sides are ready to get the season underway.
Unlike last season, the odds are drastically different with Novak Djokovic permitted to play. Djokovic is the heavy favourite to win the tournament at -110. Though he has not been here in a year, oddsmakers still recognize his greatness. Djokovic has won this title nine times in the past looking for number 10. However, his road to number 10 will not be easy with some formidable foes that have some good odds to win this tournament.

First-round action is set to begin Sunday night here in North America and late Monday morning down in Australia. Carlos Alcaraz the World Number 1 had to withdraw due to an injury he sustained during training. However, this is still a loaded tournament. The Australian Open runs from January 15th through January 29th.
Australian Odds (via Covers)
Novak Djokovic
-110
Daniil Medvedev
+550
Stefanos Tsitsipas
+1400
Nick Kyrgios
+1400
Rafael Nadal
+1400
Felix Auger-Aliassime
+1500
Jannik Sinner
+1700
Taylor Fritz
+1800
Look we know Novak Djokovic loves playing in Australia. As previously mentioned he has won the title nine times. He has three-peated twice including winning the last three he has played in. This is where he won his first of 21 major titles. He will look to tie Rafael Nadal’s 22 career major championships with a win here. Djokovic enters the tournament already having won in Adelaide International at the beginning of the year. He beat some tough competition there too including Denis Shapovalov, former World No. 1 Daniil Medvedev, and Sebastian Korda.
And look what he did last year not playing in two Grand Slams and two ATP Masters 1000 events. He still finished Number 2 in the world. And had he gotten points for his Wimbledon win, he would have finished number 1 in the world. The Serb is already in fine form, so the rest of the field better be wary.
Medvedev pops in second at +550 on the oddsmakers’ list to win the title. He has gone to back-to-back Australian Open finals, losing to Djokovic in 2021 and blowing a 2-set lead to Nadal last year. However, he has a big serve to go along with his lethal groundstrokes. Outside of losing to Djokovic last week, Medvedev looks in good form as well. The only thing that could stop him is himself. Let’s see if a third time is a charm down in Australia for the man they call “Meddy Bear.”
You can never count out the 22-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal. However, it is hard to think he can repeat in Australia, a place where he has only won twice. Once coming in 2009 and he did not win the title again until 2022. He made the finals on multiple occasions including that epic against Djokovic in 2012. But it feels like Nadal at +1200 is a risk considering his form coming into this event. But Rafa is a fighter and you can never count him out especially if he gets to the second week of a slam.
Some players that are worth betting on that have some pretty good odds are Nick Kyrgios at +1400 and Felix Auger-Aliassime at +1600. Both had amazing 2022 seasons. Kyrgois made the Wimbledon final where he lot to Djokovic. With Nick, it is all about his head because he has the game to match any player on the tour. Felix has the weapons to get the job done but his game can go wild and erratic. However, these two players are good solid bets to win if Novak does not.
Never count out Stefanos Tsitsipas who has yet to recover from his loss to Djokovic in the 2021 French Open Final. Another of those Next Gen players that have the talent, but mentally he just needs to get his confidence so he can close matches.
It is always fun starting the tennis season with a major tournament. Outside of Djokovic, the field is wide open to win the 2023 Australian Open. Will this finally be the year an American wins a Grand Slam title? Taylor Fritz has a good shot to do so. All it takes is seven wins to be crowned champion at the 2023 Australian Open

Team Canada Favored To Win 2023 World Junior Championships
It is the most wonderful time of year as the 2023 World Junior Championships get underway on Monday, December 26. The tournament takes place again in Canada, this time in Halifax and Moncton. There are no threats of COVID in sight as the organizers hope this tournament goes off with no hitches, not to mention it was only four months ago when the 2022 World Junior Championships 2.0 took place in Edmonton. The same 10 teams are back as Russia is not participating in the tournament. And oh yeah, relegation is back again. So it is going to be an exciting tournament when the puck drops.
Just like in December 2022 and August 2022, the defending gold medalist Team Canada is favoured to win the 2023 World Junior Championship. However, they will have heavy competition. Let’s take a look at the odds.
Canada Favoured To Win 2023 World Junior Championships
2023 World Juniors Odds Via Covers
Canada
-120
Finland
+300
USA
+380
Sweden
+620
Czechia
+1600
Slovakia
+3500
Entering this tournament, there are four teams that have a legit shot to win the gold medal. Canada, Finland, the USA, and Sweden. You can even throw Czechia into the mix after their result last year (which was only four months ago). It is no surprise that Team Canada is favoured to win the tournament at -120.
After dominating this summer’s World Juniors by going 7-0-0, there is a reason why Canada is favoured to repeat for the first time since Canada won five straight gold medals from 2005-2009. Canada is -315 to win Group A as they are led by captain Shane Wright and Connor Bedard. Outside of those two players, the Canadians have plenty of firepower with Logan Stankhoven, Brandt Clarke (defenceman), Brennan Othmann, and Adam Fantilli.
Even with Sweden in their group, Canada should not have any issues until the medal round, if at all.

Other Smart Odds
As mentioned before there are other teams that can win this thing. Let’s take a look at those. Finland is the second favourite to win the tournament at +300, while Team USA, who is looking for redemption entering this tournament, comes in at +380.
The Americans are a good bet here to win as there is a pattern that shows Team USA will win a gold medal after finishing fifth or lower in the tournament before. Team USA finished fifth four months ago, so expect them to compete for a medal this time around. Team USA has eight returning players including captain Luke Hughes, who leads a mobile defence corps.
Never discount Finland, though. While they may not be as skilled in years past, they are always a tough out. In Group B with the Americans, Finland will bring a competitive team to the tournament. There is a reason they are behind Canada to win this thing. Finland has won three golds in the past nine tournaments and lost to Canada in the final last year. The Finns are favoured to win Group B at -315 with Team USA coming in at +102. Again, the Americans are a solid value play to not only win the tournament but their group.
You don’t want to miss any of the action as the 2023 World Junior Championships get underway on Boxing Day — Monday, December 26.

Jalen Hurts Enters NFL MVP Discussion
Through the first two weeks of the NFL season, the MVP race is starting to take shape as Bills quarterback Josh Allen (+300) and Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (+450) lead the way for oddsmakers, however, a new name has entered the discussion.
No, it’s not Justin Herbert (+1000) or Lamar Jackson (+1200)… it’s Eagles quarterback, Jalen Hurts (+800).
Hurts and the Eagles moved to 2-0 on the season with their convincing win over the Minnesota Vikings on Monday Night. Hurts completed 26-of-31 passes for 333 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, however, his highlight reel touchdown run was the key play in the Eagles’ 24-7 victory.

PODCAST: Full Press NFL Podcast Ep 54: Chargers At Chiefs Preview
Of course, being an MVP candidate in week two means little to nothing as it is a long season, however, having only Allen and Mahomes to look up to is a promising start for the young signal-caller.
NFL MVP Odds (via Caesar’s Sportsbook)
Josh Allen
+300
Patrick Mahomes
+450
Jalen Hurts
+800
Justin Herbert
+1000
Lamar Jackson
+1200
+1800
In addition to Hurts, Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa (+1800) saw his odds improve after his six-touchdown performance in Miami’s 21-point, come-from-behind victory over Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore Ravens. Tagovailoa tossed four of his six touchdowns in the fourth quarter as wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle were too much to handle for the Ravens.
Both Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady (+2200) and Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers (+1800), the top two MVP candidates a year ago, had their odds drop for a second consecutive week after being among the top favorites entering the season. Now, that’s not to say they won’t be right in the mix by the end of the season, however, early on, it appears to be a neck-and-neck race between Allen and Mahomes.

NFL MVP Odds: Patrick Mahomes Leapfrogs Josh Allen For Top Spot
Week one of the 2022 NFL season is officially in the books after a long, dramatic offseason.
Even though it was five days ago, it feels like months since Josh Allen and the Buffalo Bills dominated the Super Bowl Champion Los Angeles Rams to open up the season after the eventful Sunday slate and Monday Night upset of Russell Wilson and the Denver Broncos.
Speaking of Allen, the Bills’ superstar signal-caller entered the season as the odds-on favorite for this year’s league MVP, however, his four-touchdown performance against the Rams on Thursday was not enough to keep him in the driver’s seat. That is because Kansas City Chiefs quarterback, Patrick Mahomes turned in a stellar five-touchdown, zero interception performance in the team’s week one win over the Arizona Cardinals.
NFL MVP Odds (via Caesar’s Sportsbook)
Patrick Mahomes
+450
Josh Allen
+550
+700
+1200
Lamar Jackson
+1300
+1500
Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert (+700) jumped Buccaneers quarterback Tom Brady after their opening week win over the Raiders.

The most intriguing movement comes with Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson moving ahead of two-time reigning MVP, Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers and the Packers struggled mightily against the Vikings while Jackson and the Ravens won a big over the New York Jets.
Of course, the Packers got blown out 38-3 a season ago in week one and it didn’t hurt Rodgers campaign for a fourth MVP. However, there is no Davante Adams for Rodgers and the Pack to lean on anymore.

NHL Rumors: Montreal Canadiens, Vancouver Canucks, Dallas Stars
Welcome to another edition of Full Press Hockey’s NHL Rumors! The NHL Draft is history, and every team has high hopes for the prospects they added. Now, with free agency moves mostly done, rumors are still around. Clubs are always working to improve their rosters for next season. Some teams are having difficulty creating enough cap space to make moves. Others are experiencing severe injuries to star players. The new 2022-23 season will begin on October 13th, and trade rumors/signings are still prevalent. In this Wednesday edition of NHL Rumors, we will take a look at the Montreal Canadiens, Vancouver Canucks, and the Dallas Stars.
Montreal Canadiens – Brendan Gallagher
Rumor: Per – Stu Cowan – montrealhockeynow.com. Are the Montreal Canadiens trying to shop Gallagher?
Gallagher has five seasons left on his six-year, $39-million contract that he signed in October 2020. If Gallagher can rebound from last season’s disappointing, injury-plagued performance, there’s a very good chance Canadiens GM Kent Hughes will trade the 30-year-old winger if he can find a partner. Cowan already speculated Hughes is “probably already trying to trade Gallagher as the Canadiens look to rebuild with youth and gain salary-cap space.”
With the Nick Suzuki captaincy, it’s an indication that the Habs are going forward with younger players. Gallagher knows that. Seeing that Gallagher will be 34 when his current deal expires, Hughes may see what the market will bear if he decides to deal his defenseman. That gets complicated when you consider he has a six-team no-trade list with that $6.5 million contract. Unless Hughes decides to retain part of Gallagher’s cap hit, or receive a good prospect or draft pick, it seems like Gallagher isn’t going anywhere.
Vancouver Canucks – Bo Horvat
Rumor: Per – Iain MacIntyre – sportsnet.ca. GM Patrik Allvin wants to sign Horvat to a contract extension.
MacIntyre feels that Horvat can get a raise from his current $5.5 million contract to about $7 million. The thing is the Canucks for this season are already over the cap limit of $82.5 million by $2.76 million. That means if they intend to re-sign their captain, they will need to have it kick in next season when they will have more space. That is… unless a trade is forthcoming to create more space.
Observing how the J.T. Miller contract talks went, Horvat could be signed when we least expect it. Keeping Horvat can certainly make the Canucks relevant. He tallied 31 goals, 21 assists in 70 games last season. And, 13 of his goals (or 42 percent) were on the power play. He is also an excellent faceoff contributor with an impressive 57 percent success rate. If the Canucks intend to be competing in the postseason again for the first time since the 2019-20 season, they will need Horvat around to assist with that endeavor.

Dallas Stars – Jason Robertson
Rumor: Per – Elliotte Friedman/Jeff Marek – podcast.sportsnet.ca. What kind of contract will young star forward Jason Robertson get?
Both Friedman and Marek commented at the 21:40 mark of the podcast at where Robertson’s contract will fall. They both agreed that a three-year $7 million deal will be forthcoming. Robertson’s production certainly deserves that much of a deal. He had 41 goals (17.1 percent of team’s total goals), 38 assists in 74 games. On the power play he threw in 13 goals and was an accurate shooter with an 18.6 percent rate. His Corsi numbers are also off the chart with a 55.7 Corsi For and a 9.7 Relative Corsi For.

If he isn’t worthy of an elevated contract, not sure who is.
“These RFA deals will often sit and wait, that’s kind of the nature of it,” Stars owner Tom Gaglardi said on the Cam & Strick Podcast. “We’ve got the cap space sitting, waiting for these guys. And so no, we’re not concerned about it. Those conversations are happening. I can’t tell you that a deal is imminent.”
“A kid in the third year of his entry-level (deal) puts up 40 goals, and now he wants to make $7 million,” Gaglardi said. “If you want term with that player, he’s going to take you higher than that … The stars are taking all the money, and the guys in the middle are getting squeezed.”
Wonder what Gaglardi thinks of the Tage Thompson and Tim Stützle extensions.
It seems that the Stars will have no choice but to satisfy Robertson. They need to consider the alternative… without him they may not be a playoff contender. Like most available restricted free agents, Robertson will need to wait it out… just a bit longer. In the end, the Stars will come to their senses.
That concludes this edition of NHL rumors. Be sure to catch our next article, and thanks for reading!

WWE Clash at the Castle Odds: Drew McIntyre vs Roman Reigns
We are just one day away from WWE Clash at the Castle in Wales. It is the first time since Summerslam 1992 that WWE is holding a PPV outside of North America. Yes, they have gone to Europe before and held shows for PPV specials, but they have never held a major PPV there in 30 years. Roman Reigns vs Drew McIntyre headlines the show for the WWE Undisputed Universal Championship. There is going to be plenty of excitement with Triple H calling the shots.
With a ton of anticipation ahead of the event, let’s take a look at the odds for Clash at the Castle and some of the favourites that are expected to emerge victorious from the event.
Around Full Press Coverage
NFL OPINION: Chicago Bears: New-Look Defense May Bring Back The Monsters
US Open: 2022 US Open Odds: Can Daniil Medvedev Repeat?
NFL: Have the Green Bay Packers Assembled a Super Bowl Defense?
FULL PRESS BETS: Odds Favor The Avalanche To Repeat As Stanley Cup Champions
NHL: Colorado Avalanche Long Journey Back To The Stanley Cup
PODCAST: Full Press NFL Podcast Ep 42: Deebo Samuel Requests Trade; Possible Landing Spots
WWE Clash at the Castle Odds via Sports Betting Dime:
- WWE Undisputed Universal Championship Match: Roman Reigns (-100) vs Drew McIntyre (-150). This is another pick’em with Reigns slightly favoured to retain. However, there is a belief that McIntyre could win the title in his continent.
- WWE Intercontinental Championship Match: Gunther (-600) vs Sheamus (+350).
Gunther is a heavy favourite to retain the title. The biggest favourite on the night. This is going to be a war between two of the bigger guys in the company. Both men pack a punch or a chop you do not want to get in front of. This will be a fun one to watch.
- Smackdown Women’s Championship: Liv Morgan (-250) vs Shayna Baszler (+250).
This should be a good match. There is a feeling Liv is going to keep the title here, but oddsmakers see a scenario where Baszler could walk out with the title. There is value here in taking the underdog.
- Seth Rollins (-150) vs Matt Riddle (+150)
The build to this match has been excellent especially this past Monday night on Raw. Rollins has been putting over Cody Rhodes in their feud. With Riddle being a star on the rise does the trend continue for Rollins putting over more talent? Oddsmakers feel Riddle has value as an underdog, but Rollins always finds ways to win. It feels like they want you to bet on Riddle here.
- Edge and Rey Mysterio (+150) vs Judgement Day (Finn Balor and Damien Priest) (-300)
This should be a good match. Edge and Mysterio have not teamed since the days of the Smackdown Six in 2002. They are slight underdogs, but the veterans will get a lot of money heading into the match against the favourites that is the Judgement Day. It will be interesting to see if the money shifts as we get closer to the event. Oddsmakers feel Balor and Priest have something up their sleeve to cost the babyfaces the match.
- Asuka, Alexa Bliss, and Bianca Belair (-400) vs. Bayley, Io Sky, and Dakota Kai (+200)
This one is weird to see. The babyfaces of Asuka, Bliss and Belair have gotten the best of Bayley, Sky, and Kai recently. The face trio are heavy favourites. This is where you could get some money with the heels. In order for this group to be seen as a legitimate threat, they need a big win. It could come in this match.

AEW ALL OUT ODDS: AEW World Title: Jon Moxley vs CM Punk
AEW’s ALL OUT pay-per-view is this Sunday, September 4th in Chicago at the NOW Arena. Even though AEW only has four PPVs a year, ALL OUT and Double or Nothing are considered the two biggest. On the go-home edition of AEW Dynamite, the World Title picture got clearer after Jon Moxley squashed CM Punk to unify the belts on the August 24th edition of Dynamite. There indeed will be a rematch in Chicago on Sunday between CM Punk and Jon Moxley for the title.
There was some uncertainty with the card heading into the weekend, but AEW made sure to give the fans an excellent card from top to bottom. In addition to the World Title match, the Trios Champions will be crowned, an interim AEW Women’s Champion will be crowned, along with two more championship matches on the main card.
With only a few days left before AEW ALL OUT, let’s take a look at some of the betting favourites that are expected to emerge victorious in the night’s biggest bouts.

FULL PRESS BETS: Odds Favor The Avalanche To Repeat As Stanley Cup Champions
NHL: Colorado Avalanche Long Journey Back To The Stanley Cup
PODCAST: Full Press NFL Podcast Ep 42: Deebo Samuel Requests Trade; Possible Landing Spots
AEW ALL OUT Odds via Sports Betting Dime:
- AEW World Championship: Jon Moxley vs. CM Punk (Pickem) Moxley and Punk each have -100 odds to win the title.
- AEW Interim Women’s Championship: Toni Storm (-150) vs. Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D (+225) vs. Jamie Hayter (+450) vs. Hikaru Shida (+500)
Toni Storm is the favourite to come out of this match with the title. However, there is good value with the three competitors in the match. Especially Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D.
- AEW World Tag Team Championships: Swerve In Our Glory (-400) vs. The Acclaimed (+250)
This has the potential to steal the show. Though Swerve in Our Glory are heavy favourites, the Acclaimed are so over that Tony Khan should make the title switch.
- TBS Championship: Jade Cargill (-500) vs. Athena (+300)
Athena is the biggest threat to Jade Cargill’s title run as TBS Champion. Though Jade is an overwhelming favourite, a title switch is not out of the question.
- AEW World Trios Championship Tournament Finals: The Elite (-900) vs Dark Order (+600)
It is no surprise the Elite (Kenny Omega and the Young Bucks are heavy favourites to win the Trios Belts. This is why Omega came back. You need established stars to make the new titles matter. This is a lock, especially with the storyline playing out with Hangman Adam Page.
- Wardlow & FTR vs. Jay Lethal (-500) & Motor City Machine Guns (+300)
This will be a good match. It is expected that the former Pinnacle members will go over. But the fact we get FTR and the Motor City Machine Guns is a dream.
- Junge Boy (-180) vs. Christian Cage (+130)
This feud has been over a year in the making ever since Jungle Boy tossed Christian out of the Casino Battle Royal at Double or Nothing 2021. Christian finally turned on Jack Perry. They have been at odds all summer as Jungle Boy will finally get his hands on Christian. Jungle Boy is the favourite, don’t discount the veteran. And where does Luchasaurus factor in this one?
- Ricky Starks (-240) vs. Powerhouse Hobbs (+175)
This will be a good match. Starks is a star in the company. His babyface promos have propelled him in this rivalry with Hobbs. There is no doubt Starks is going over in this one.
- Bryan Danielson (-220) vs. Chris Jericho (+160)
This should be a great match as the Blackpool Combat Club and Jericho Appreciation Society rivalry continues. The Lionheart Chris Jericho takes on the American Dragon Bryan Danielson. Though Danielson is favoured, you have to wonder if Jericho continues his trend of putting over other stars. Does he finally get a win in this rivalry, but history says that it is Danielson’s time. Do not forget about Daniel Garcia and his role in this match.
- Casino Ladder Match (The Joker (+150), Claudio (+325), Rey Fenix (+350), Wheeler Yuta (+400), Andrade (+400), Rush(+600), Penta (+1000))
This is always a fun match. The first Casino Ladder Match appeared at Double or Nothing in 2020. This is a loaded match. Obviously, the intrigue will be around the Joker and who the wrestler debuting or reappearing is. This is where I would take a bet on MJF appearing at +150 odds. From all indications, the AEW roster is back to 100 percent, so that MJF is back in some form. Usually, the Joker is the winner as we saw with Brian Cage, but who knows? The winner of this match will really determine the main event.
Zero Hour:
Tomohiro Ishii vs Eddie Kingston
Sting, Darby Allin, and Miro vs House of Black
FTW Championship: Hook vs Angelo Parker
AEW ALL OUT Happens Sunday, September 4th.

2022 US Open Odds: Iga Swiatek Oddsmakers Favorite To Win
The 2022 US Open is upon us. Nothing beats the bright lights and the crowds of New York City. It is an experience like none of the other majors in tennis. Each is unique in its own way, but something is special about the US Open. With the North American hardcourt swing wrapping up, all eyes are on Flushing Meadows, New York for the year’s final major.
Earlier we looked at the men’s odds to win the 2022 US Open, now we are going to take a look at the women’s side of things and who the oddsmakers have pegged as the favourite. While all the talk will be about Serena Williams and this is her final US Open as she will retire after the event. Oh by the way Serena won her first career major at the 1999 US Open, we cannot forget about the rest of the tennis on the women’s side of things that is going on.
With Ashleigh Barty retiring after winning the Australian Open, the 21-year-old sensation and number one player in the world Iga Swiatek is favoured to lift the trophy at +380. However, as we have seen in recent history, it is a wide-open field. The last seven US Open champions have been first-time winners.

With first-round action set to begin on Monday, here is a look at the latest odds to win the 2022 US Open at the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center. The US Open runs from August 29 through September 11.
US Open Odds (via Covers)
Iga Swiatek
+380
Simona Halep
+800
Coco Gauff
+1300
Elena Rybakina
+1700
Aryna Sabalenka
+1700
Caroline Garcia
+1700
Emma Raducanu
+1900
Naomi Osaka
+2200
Swiatek is having a season to remember. She had a remarkable winning streak during the 2022 season. At one point, Swiatek won 37 matches in a row including her second French Open title. Since her third-round loss at Wimbledon, it has been a mixed bag for the World Number One. Her nerves got the best of her in Toronto and Cincinnati. Though Swiatek looks to continue to build on the results from her past US Open experience. Her best result came last year reaching the fourth round. She is a proven hard-court player winning the Sunshine Double (Indian Wells and Miami) earlier in the year. But playing in New York is much different, especially at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
With Swiatek being the heavy favourite to win the women’s tournament, lurking around are some past Grand Slam champions including Simona Halep. Halep has won two major titles already and has the ability to win in New York. She has been to the semifinals of this event in 2015 and after winning in Toronto and making a run to the semis at Wimbledon, her odds increased.
We can’t forget about the rest of the field either. Naomi Osaka, the two-time US Open champion always has a shot to win in New York. Despite having a tough season, she has the ability to take her game to the next level, especially in the majors. The defending women’s champion Emma Raducanu is coming in at +1900. She came out of nowhere last year to lift the trophy. While she has the talent to do it again, it will be tough.
The last American woman to win the US Open was Sloane Stephens. Before that, it was Serena Williams. Coco Gauff has the best odds at +1300. Gauff made the final of the 2022 French Open losing to Swiatek. The teenage sensation is only getting better. Outside of Gauff, Americans Madison Keys and Jessica Pegula are each +2600 to win the tournament. Then there is Ons Jabeur, also at +2600 to win. Jabeur is sneaky good and if there is a long shot to win it would be her.
2019 US Open Bianca Andreescu checks in at +2900. Andreescu is coming back after some injuries. Her results have been getting better. But she is in for a challenge at this year’s tournament.
It is a wide-open women’s field after Swiatek when the action begins Monday at the 2022 US Open. Sometimes the best odds are the ones with the longest odds.

2022 US Open Odds: Can Daniil Medvedev Repeat?
The 2022 US Open is upon us. Nothing beats the bright lights and the crowds of New York City. It is an experience like none of the other majors in tennis. Each is unique in its own way, but something is special about the US Open. With the North American hardcourt swing wrapping up, all eyes are on Flushing Meadows, New York for the year’s final major.
The odds are a lot different this year without Novak Djokovic permitted to play in the United States due to his vaccination status. We might not see the 21-time Grand Slam champion play another major until the French Open in May of 2023. With Djokovic not in New York, 2021 US Open Champion Daniil Medvedev is the favourite to win the tournament at +210. However, lurking in the weeds are some formidable foes that have some good odds to win the tournament.

Medvedev always loves playing in New York. He had a breakthrough trip to the final in 2019 losing to Rafael Nadal in five sets. Medvedev loves playing in New York and is one of the best hard-court players on the tour. Since his trip to the final in 2019, Medvedev lost in the semis to Dominic Thiem in 2020 and beat Djokovic last year in the final to win in his first major. The Russian got his first win of the season in Los Cabos before losing in the Round of 32 in Montreal, and the quarterfinals in Cincinnati. Daniil knows how to handle the pressure as he looks to win the second major of his career.
You can’t count out the 22-time Grand Slam champion Rafael Nadal. Nadal beat Medvedev in Australia to open the season. That was a bit of shock to everyone including Nadal. He backed it up by winning in Paris. But Nadal has been dealing with a foot issue and though he has won in New York before, this season it has been difficult for him to play. He had to withdraw from Wimbledon after beating Taylor Fritz. Nadal has not played much. His first match since Wimbledon was a loss to Borna Coric in the round of 32 in Cincinnati.
Carlos Alcaraz is having a season to remember. He has yet to break through when the pressure is really on. However, he has two Masters 1000 to his name winning in Miami and Madrid. Beating Nadal in Madrid. His game is remarkable for such a young player. Alcaraz can definitely break through to win a major. It could be this year.
Outside of these guys, the field is wide open. Marin Cilic the 2014 US Open champion has some pretty high odds to take home another title. The year he won, he served everyone off the court including Roger Federer. Stefanos Tsitsipas is looking to get back to a final after blowing a two-set lead to Djokovic at the French Open in 2021. He has the ability to get back there, but it is all mental for him.
Then there is Nick Kyrgios, who is having a season to remember. Lost in the final of Wimbledon, but continues to have great results. Can he finally break through? And of course let us not forget about Hubert Hurkacz, Borna Coric (Cincinnati Masters Winner) and Matteo Berrettini.
The field is wide open. There are always upsets in the first week of the tournament. Will an American male finally win a major? The last one to do so was Andy Roddick in 2003 at this event. Taylor Fritz has the game to do so. But there are so many good players that have the ability to make deep runs. All it takes is seven wins to be crowned champion at the 2022 US Open.
