The US Open is not for another week, but with most of the top contenders taking this week off to rest up it’s time to look ahead and check out the tournament winner odds and look at where to bet on the US Open tournament and each individual match. Last year Djokovic won the tournament to cement his spot as the #1 player of 2011, but this year Federer heads into New York with the number 1 seed and many people consider him the favorite to win the tournament.
Novak Djokovic is a slightly bigger favorite than Federer with odds of +170 to win the tournament, while Federer sits with odds of +255 to take home the hardware. Andy Murray is the only other player being given decent odds to win this Grand Slam with +400 odds after he won the gold medal at the Olympics only a few weeks ago. You may notice a familiar name not included in this paragraph and that is because Rafa Nadal will be sitting out this tournament to rest his injured knee.
Some other players with an outside chance to winning the tournament include Juan Martin Del Potro (+1225), Jo Wilfried Tsonga (+4500), Milos Raonic (+7000) and John Isner (+8000).
