2024 Men’s Wimbledon Odds: Carlos Alcaraz Favored to Repeat, Novak Djokovic’s Odds Not Listed

In 2023, phenom Carlos Alcaraz dethroned Novak Djokovic in a thrilling five set match for the Wimbledon title, his second Grand Slam.

This year, Alcaraz is favored to do so yet again, even more so with Novak Djokovic's status in question heading into the third Grand Slam of 2024 after he had to withdraw from the French Open due to a torn meniscus.

Alcaraz, who won the French Open on Sunday, is expected to repeat at Wimbledon, but the emergence of Jannik Sinner is notable. Sinner, who rose to No. 1 in the world following the French Open is a close second choice to take down Alcaraz while other contenders like Alexander Zverev and Daniil Medvedev loom as well.

Here are the early odds for Wimbledon following the French Open

The two bright young stars in tennis at the moment, fresh off a five-set thriller at the French Open in the semifinals, could be in line to meet yet again with the stakes at its highest on grass this year.

With Djokovic status in doubt to return for Wimbledon, Alcaraz and Sinner are the clear top choices to emerge out of the fray in what should be a competitive Grand Slam.

The two rising stars continue to play thrillers against one another in Grand Slam meetings, two of the three have gone five sets. However, the one that didn't was back in 2022 when Sinner won in the fourth round of Wimbledon.

There will be intrigue at the top of the odds board as to whether Djokovic can make an incredible return to the court, but if not, it could be another wide open field with people trying to take down Alcaraz and Sinner.

Daniil Medvedev Offers Best Line of the French Open After Reaching Fourth Round

Daniil Medvedev Offers Best Line of the French Open After Reaching Fourth Round

If you scroll quickly through Daniil Medvedev's resume since he turned pro in 2015, a hierarchy of surfaces becomes clear.

On hard courts, the Russian has won his only major championship—the 2021 U.S. Open—and reached three Australian Open finals. On grass, he reached the Wimbledon semifinals in 2023.

Clay has been less kind to the 28-year-old. The furthest Medvedev has advanced at the French Open is the quarterfinals in '21, and he's reached just two clay ATP singles finals ever.

On Saturday, after topping Tomas Machac of the Czech Republic 7–6 (4), 7–5, 1–6, 6–4 in the French Open's third round, Medvedev had some self-deprecating fun with his clay struggles.

"We've rarely seen you this relaxed at Roland-Garros..." an interview began.

"That's because I often lose in the first round," Medvedev replied.

Indeed, Medvedev didn't win a singles match at the French Open until '21—his fifth try.

Next up for the Russian is Australia's Alex de Minaur in the fourth round, to be played Monday morning.
