We are about 10 days away from the start of the 2024 version of the Australian Open, with the odds to win it all already released by the bookies. There are no real surprises to be found in those odds, but are you guys going to go with one of the top picks to win, or are you of the belief that we might see a dark horse emerge from the pack? The conversation about potential underdog winners is a conversation for another day, as we are focusing on the top 3 players that the bookies have as the most likely to win this year. With that in mind, let’s take a closer look at each of those 3 players to consider in your Australian Open betting plans.

Novak Djokovic

Like we said earlier, there is no surprise in seeing Djokovic in as the favorite to win the Australian Open once again. He has won it 10 times over the course of his career and is the defending champion, as well as the winner in 4 of the last 5 years. While Djokovic is now 36 years of age, he shows no signs of slowing down and remains the top player in the ATP. In fact, he is coming off his best season since 2016 in terms of beating players ranked in the top 10, which he did 17 times in 2023. With 1087 career wins to his name and over $180 million in earnings, Djokovic is easily the most successful player on the tour right now. These are all solid reasons as to why he is the favorite to nab his 11th Australian Open title.

 

Carlos Alcaraz

With the like of Djokovic, Nadal, and Federer either retired or getting up there in years, the door is opening for new blood to come in and make a mark. 20-year-old Carlos Alcaraz is one player that looks set to have a long, successful career. The signs are certainly there that he is more than ready to make a big move this year, as he won 6 titles in 2023, including at Wimbledon, where he ended Djokovic’s run of 4-straight championships by beating him in the final. Of the 8 finals he reached in 2023, only 2 were on a hard court, so this might not be the best for him, as clay seems to be where he truly excels. Still, you have to consider him a threat.

 

Jannik Sinner

Another young up and coming star is among the favorites to win the 2024 Australian Open. While Alcaraz is ahead of Sinner on the bookies board, I might be more inclined to put my money on the Italian in this tournament. Sinner went to 7 different tournament finals last season and all of them were on a hard court. He won 4 of those finals, which means he now has 10 career title wins to his name. In fact, if you look back at his career, 13 of the 14 finals that he has reached have been on a hard court. Those are stats that simply cannot be ignored, and I believe it makes him a very solid pick this time around.

Oh yeah…and what about reigning Aussie Open champ, Sofia Kenin? Let’s find out.

Just prior to the start of this year’s Aussie Open, I had Naomi Osaka, Serena Williams and Sofia Kenin as my top three picks to win this year’s first slam. While I eventually ended up picking Williams as my pick to get the win, it was a gut-wrenching decision that left me completely exhausted.

Now, four days into the Australian Open, I remain unperturbed about my top three picks, although I will be the first to admit that a handful of other stars are looking good right now.

Osaka is into the third round after unmercifully pounding Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova 6-1, 6-2 and Caroline Garcia 6-2, 6-3 in her first two matches. Next up in Ons Jabeur and I expect Osaka to advance, even if Jabeur does make it a bit more difficult.

Williams is also into the third round after stomping Laura Siegemund 6-1, 6-1 in her opener and Nina Stojanovic 6-3, 6-0 on Tuesday. Next up is Anastasia Potapova and Williams is a virtual lock to win that match. Right now, the seven-time Aussie Open champ looks fit and dangerous with a capital D.

As far as Sofia Kenin is concerned, the American struggled to get past  Australian Maddison Inglis in her opener 7-5, 6-4. Still, I like the fiery Kenin and believe she’s going to have a legitimate shot to repeat.

There is one player that I overlooked as far as a potential winner is concerned and that’s Poland native Iga Swiatek. The 19-year-old smacked Aranxta Rus around 6-1, 6-3 in her opener and got by one of my favorite WTA Tour players, Italian Camila Giorgi, 6-2, 6-4 in the second round. Swiatek started her 2021 campaign by taking home the hardware at the Gippsland Trophy and looks like a player that is going to seriously challenge for multiple gran slams in her career after stunning everyone en route to last year’s French Open title.

World No. 1 Ashleigh Barty is another player that is going to have a great chance to challenge for the win. The 2019 French Open winner and 2020 Australian Open finalist beat the hell out of Danka Kovinic in her opener 6-0, 6-0 and looks as dangerous as anyone as she heads into the second round.

“It’s tough to expect that all the top players will win every match, because some of them had to do quarantine 14 days, they couldn’t practice,” Halep said recently. “Also, for us, those who practiced, was not that easy even if we had the…good possibility to train.

“The times are not easy for everybody, so [the] mental part is paying a lot of work this period, and we will see day by day,” halep added. “So I don’t really feel like the top players will win every match this period.”

As is stands right now, my top two picks for Williams and Osaka remain unchanged. I’m a little iffy on Kenin until further notice and I believe Ash Barty or some other title contender like Simona Halep or Elina Svitolina could challenge for a berth in the finals.
