Wimbledon 2024: Gambling Forecasts and Predictions
Wimbledon 2024: Swiatek and Sabalenka Emerge as Top Contenders
The Women's Singles title at Wimbledon 2024 is shaping up to be an exciting competition, with two players standing out as the clear favourites. According to William Hill, a well-known bookmaker, Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka are the top contenders for the title, with odds of approximately 11/8 (3.75) each [1].
Swiatek, the current world number one, is often seen as a strong favourite in women's tennis due to her top ranking and recent impressive performances. Sabalenka, on the other hand, is also highly competitive, having reached multiple Grand Slam semifinals and finals [1].
As of the current odds, Swiatek and Sabalenka are nearly equally likely to win the title, with both significantly favoured over other competitors. However, it's important to note that these odds are early or current as of 2025 and reflect bookmakers' assessments before or just after Wimbledon 2024 took place or for upcoming Wimbledon 2026 [1].
Other potential contenders for the Women's Singles title include Ons Jabeur at +1600, Jessica Pegula at +2000, Elena Rybakina at +450, Katie Boulter at +5000, and Emma Raducanu at +2500 [2]. Coco Gauff is also listed at a fairly generous +600 for Women's Singles [3].
In the Men's Singles competition, Carlos Alcaraz and Jannik Sinner are joint-favourites for the championship. Alcaraz has won three Grand Slam titles out of the last seven, including the recent French Open. Meanwhile, Sinner won the Australian Open in January [4].
The Men's Singles final is scheduled for July 14, and the Women's Singles final is on July 13. Notable mentions include Poland's Hubert Hurkacz, who made it to the semifinal of Wimbledon in 2021, and British player Jack Draper, who knocked Carlos Alcaraz out of the London's Queen's Club tournament [5]. Draper is currently at +2000 for an each-way bet in the Men's Singles competition.
It's worth mentioning that Rafael Nadal has opted to prioritize winning gold at the Paris 2024 Olympics, which starts two weeks after the end of Wimbledon. Novak Djokovic may also participate in Wimbledon 2024 despite recent surgery on a torn meniscus [6].
Wimbledon 2024 began last week, and the tournament promises to be a thrilling event with many talented players vying for the coveted titles. For up-to-the-minute odds or additional contenders beyond these, checking live sports betting platforms closer to the tournament date is recommended.
