Next Sunday the new edition of Roland Garros startsand doing so without the king, Rafa Nadal, and with two names above the rest: Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic.
The Spaniard and the Serbian are the top favorites for the title on the Parisian clay, although it is not easy to opt for one of them. In these cases, it is common to pull betting houses, which have no color, no philias or phobias. They only move for economic interests, which makes them more credible when it comes to ‘reading’.
Well, for them Carlos Alcaraz starts with the champion’s lead of 22 Grand Slam titles. Murcian success is paying off between 2.25 and 2.40 euros for every euro invested, while the Serbian one does it in between 2.75 and 3.30 euros.
Behind them is the Danish Holger Rune (between 7.25 and 9 euros). Then we see the Greek Stefanos Tsitsipas, fifth player in the world at the age of 24 -between 9 and 11 euros-; the Italian Jannik Sinner, 21 years old and eighth in the ATP ranking -between 9.50 and 15 euros-; the Russian Daniil Medvedev, 27 years old and second after Alcaraz -between 10 and 13-.
The current runner-up, Casper Ruud, 24 and quarter years old, trades between 12 and 23 euros and the German Alexander Zverev, 26 years old and who, despite being twenty-seventh in the tennis list at the moment, is among the favorites to win in Paris with an index of from 20 to 23 euros in betting houses .
As a fact to consider, it should be noted that the victory of Rafa Nadal, before the defeat of Mallorca was confirmed due to injury, was paid between 5 and 6.80 euros.
By raising Alcaraz from second to first place in the international rankings and dropping Djokovic from first to third and slipping between the two Medvedev there could be a rivalry between the one from El Palmar and the one from Belgrade in the semifinals.
The pairings will be announced this Thursday from the first rounds in the draw to be held in the French capital.
