Where Can I Bet the French Open Online From My State?

The second major of the 2024 tennis season, the French Open, is currently underway with qualifying rounds. Action is going to get started in earnest on the clay at Roland-Garros this Sunday (May 26th), then concluding Sunday, June 9th. It was Novak Djokovic (record-setting 23rd major) and Iga Swiatek winning in 2023. Swiatek has now won thrice in the last four.  

As a refresher, Italy’s Jannik Sinner and Aryna Sabalenka of Belarus were the winners of the 2024 Australian Open to begin this season’s majors.    

Here’s a look at some of the odds ahead of the French Open, along with picks to consider… with betting available from all US states and across the world courtesy of BetUS (now celebrating 30 great years in business).

Men are Loaded

We’re not talking about liquor consumption. Leading into the French Open, men are indeed loaded, with any number of legitimate candidates to leave Roland-Garros with the Musketeers’ Trophy (La Coupe des Mousquetaires).

There’s no odds-on favorite. Spaniard Carlos Alcaraz is the current favorite to win, priced at 7-4 (+175), according to French Open odds. Alcaraz, never a winner here, has battled through some injuries this season

Novak Djokovic, the defending champion (defeating Alcaraz) of this event, is in the strange position of not being the wagering fave this time around. He’s second choice at 11-4 (+275), but wouldn’t stun a soul if the Serb was to win a fourth title at the French.  

Jannik Sinner, as was mentioned the Aussie Open winner, is a 4-1 (+400) proposition to add the second major of the season, while Alexander Zverev (Germany) is at 6-1 (+600). Greece’s Stefanos Tsitsipas is listed at 7-1 (+700), the rest of the board all into double figures.

It’s not possible to write about the French Open without mentioning 14-time champ Rafael Nadal. He’s been the darling of Paris throughout his career, but injuries took out much of his 2023 season and whether he’s a force this time around is questionable. He’s at 12-1 (+1200).

Swiatek to Defend?

As was mentioned, Poland’s Iga Swiatek is the defending champion (actually two-time defending champ, three of last four) on the women’s side of the French Open. She is hovering right around 2-3 (-150) to keep it going, so not much in the way of value with the Queen of Clay.

Aryna Sabalenka, winner of the Australian Open, is sitting at approximately 11-2 (+550) and is taken to be Swiatek’s biggest obstacle here.  Sabalenka is 50-1 (+5000) to win here, Wimbledon and at the U.S. Open, as per Grand Slam tennis odds.

American Coco Gauff is priced at around 8-1 (+800), with Kazakhstan’s Elena Rybakina (approximately 9-1 [+900]) and the U.S.’s Danielle Collins at about 15-1 (+1500) on the board.
