US Open Tennis Odds & Betting Lines

The US Open, or the US Open Tennis Championships to give it its full name, is one of the four Grand Slam tournaments on the sport’s calendar. Played on hardcourt, the US Open is the last of the four Grand Slams to be played each year, with the location of the event being New York City. The US Open begins on the last Monday in August, running for a fortnight. 

There are multiple events played at the US Open, with the men’s and women’s singles the most popular. Bill Tilden is the most successful male player in US Open history, with seven titles to his name. Molla Mallory has eight titles, which makes her the most successful player in women’s singles history at the tournament. The 2024 US Open begins on August 26, with Novak Djokovic and Coco Gauff starting as the reigning champions in the men’s and women’s singles, respectively. The tournament is due to end on September 8. 

The US Open is a very popular tennis event, especially as the last of the Grand Slams to be played each year. Here are some of the betting markets available for the tournament. 

Men’s Singles Outright Betting 

As is the case with every Grand Slam, the men’s singles is the most popular part of the tournament, and that includes to watch and to bet on. Therefore, many want to place wagers on who they think will be declared the US Open men’s winner on August 26. Novak Djokovic is the reigning champion, and he will head into the 2024 event as the favourite. Carlos Alcaraz is also right up there in the betting, and what transpires at Wimbledon could have an impact in New York City in late August. 

Women’s Singles Outright Betting 

The women’s singles event at the US Open is always hotly contested, and last year it was Coco Gauff who came out on top. The American is seen as having an outside chance this time around, with the women’s singles betting market suggesting Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka are the two to beat. Placing a bet in this market is essentially backing the overall winner. Bets can be placed before and during the tournament. 

Match Betting 

When a tournament is scheduled to run for a fortnight in total, it means that there’s a lot of tennis to be played in that time, and a lot of rounds to work through. It’s why match betting, either before or during play, is a popular betting market in general where the US Open and other tennis events are concerned. Bettors also have the chance to use stats, form and other factors when considering which bets to place and why. In-play betting is as popular, if not more, for similar reasons. 

Men’s Singles 

 Women’s Singles 

According to the latest betting odds, Novak Djokovic is the favourite to win the men's singles title at the US Open, with Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner the two players set to rival him. While Djokovic is the reigning champion, it’s not a Grand Slam he’s as successful in compared to the Australian Open or Wimbledon, for example. And at thirty-seven, 2022 winner Alcaraz, who defeated the Serb at Wimbledon last year, could have what it takes to make it two US Open titles from three. Daniil Medvedev is seen as an outsider in the betting, but he’s always there or thereabouts at this Grand Slam in particular. 

As we see with many women’s singles events, especially at Grand Slam tournaments, it’s Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka who are deemed favourites. Sabalenka was runner-up to Coco Gauff last year and could go one better in 2024. Swiatek won the US Open in 2022, which could give her the edge. Coca Gauff, last year’s winner, has an outside chance of defending her crown.
