While most Grand Slams have seen repeat champions in recent years, the U.S. Open has seen more variety in its winners. On both the women’s and men’s singles sides, there have been five different champions in the last five years. To some extent, that goes along with the favorites for this year’s tournament.
Aryna Sabalenka, who has never won the U.S. Open but was the runner-up last year, is the betting favorite on BetMGM with +275 odds. Carlos Alcaraz, who won in 2022 but lost in the semifinals last year, is the men’s favorite with +200 odds.
For both sides, though, the top favorites in the odds include a handful of the usual suspects: After Sabalenka on the women’s side comes Iga Swiatek (+350) and Coco Gauff (+600). On the men’s, Novak Djokovic (+225) and Jannik Sinner (+300) follow Alcaraz.
Here’s a deeper look into the U.S. Open odds below and the toughest or most exciting matchups to expect from Thursday’s draw.
