The Serbian, who is coming off<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>an Olympic gold, has won at least one of the big four tournaments in the last 6 years and 12 of<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>the past 13. Standing in his way, the new face of men\u2019s tennis, Carlos Alcaraz who\u2019s looking for<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>his third straight major in 2024.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Carlos Alcaraz +150<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carlo Alcaraz has won the French Open, Wimbledon and made the gold medal match at the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Olympics but had to settle for silver. The 21-year old has been sensational this year compiling a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>record of 38-7 and winning three titles, including the two majors. He\u2019ll be poised to rebound<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>after losing in Paris, a match he was favored against Novak Djokovic. Barring injuries, or a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>mental lapse, Alcaraz should cruise into the final four, but at these short odds, it\u2019s tough to back<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>him to win it all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Novak Djokovic +220<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Novak Djokovic became the fifth player to complete the Golden Slam after taking gold at the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Paris Games. But he\u2019s had a tough few months having to withdraw from this year\u2019s French<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Open and then getting steamrolled by Alcarez in the finals at Wimbledon. Still, you can\u2019t count<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>out the 4-time U.S.Open champion who is poised to continue his run of winning a grand slam<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>title for the seventh straight year. Can the Joker feed off his Olympic win and continue that<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>momentum at Flushing Meadows?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Jannik Sinner +225<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He is the number one ranked player in the world and won the first major of the year but can<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jannik Sinner get by Djokovic and Alcaraz to win his second? He\u2019s never passed the quarters<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>in the U.S. Open but has reached the final eight in each of the grand slams this year. The<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>23-year old has a season best record of 42-4 with four titles but will be hard pressed for another.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another player who\u2019s odds may be too short to lay some money down.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Longshots<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Daniil Medvedev +800<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daniil Medvedev has been knocking on the door of another major reaching the final at the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Australian Open and semi final of Wimbledon this year. His lone grand slam title came at the<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2021 U.S. Open and he also was runner-up to Djokovic last year. Medvedev would likely have<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>to get by at least one of the top three players, and could benefit from the others having played a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>lot of tennis recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Tommy Paul +3300<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best hope for an American may be Tommy Paul. He\u2019s coming off a quarter final<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>appearance at Wimbledon and the Olympics. Two years ago he reached the third round at<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Flushing Meadows, the fourth round in 2023 so maybe 2024 means this could be the breakout<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>he\u2019s looking for. At these odds, it may be worth a dabble but don\u2019t hold your breath.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Odds for 2024 Men&#8217;s US Open<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Carlos Alcaraz +150<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Novak Djokovic +220<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Jannik Sinner +225<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Daniil Medvedev +800<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alexander Zverev +1600<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Tommy Paul +3300<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rafael Nadal +3300<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Casper Ruud +4000<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Taylor Fritz +4000<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Holger Rune +4000<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ben Shelton +4000<br>Alex De Minaur +4000<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It is the final major of the tennis season and the big question will be, can Novak Djokovic continue his&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":16,"featured_media":24957,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[144],"tags":[204],"class_list":["post-25205","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-tennis","tag-tennis"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25205","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/16"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=25205"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25205\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25206,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/25205\/revisions\/25206"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/24957"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=25205"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=25205"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.betonline.ag\/news-room\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=25205"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
