2025 Wimbledon odds: Is Jannik Sinner or Carlos Alcaraz favored?
One of the greatest matches in the history of men's tennis took place on Sunday at Roland Garros.
World No. 2 Carlos Alcaraz took down World No. 1 Jannik Sinner in an epic five-set marathon, winning 4-6, 6-7, 6-4, 7-6, 7-6.
And just like that, it's time to look ahead to the third Grand Slam of the year: Wimbledon.
Let's look at the early odds for the world's most prestigious tennis tournament, as of June 8.
Wimbledon men 2025
Carlos Alcaraz: +150 (bet $10 to win $25 total)Jannik Sinner: +160 (bet $10 to win $26 total)Novak Djokovic: +500 (bet $10 to win $60 total)Jack Draper: +1000 (bet $10 to win $110 total)Alexander Zverev: +1800 (bet $10 to win $190 total)Daniil Medvedev: +2500 (bet $10 to win $260 total)Taylor Fritz: +3000 (bet $10 to win $310 total)Matteo Berrettini: +3000 (bet $10 to win $310 total)Lorenzo Musetti: +3000 (bet $10 to win $310 total)
Alex De Minaur: +3000 (bet $10 to win $310 total)
As a tennis fan, surely it is hard to breathe after that one.
Coming into the match, Sinner had only lost once on the year — to Alcaraz in the final at Rome.
Sinner had also won the last two Grand Slams: the 2024 US Open and the 2025 Australian Open.
Alcaraz, however, won Roland Garros in 2024 and was looking to defend his title, all while cementing his status as the best clay court player in the world now that Rafael Nadal has entered retirement.
Alcaraz did just that, fighting off a two-set deficit and three match points in the fourth set before winning the title via a fifth-set tiebreak.
Unreal.
Alcaraz is now 5-0 in Grand Slam finals. Sinner drops to 3-1.
As for Wimbledon, Alcaraz is the defending champion there and opens as the slightest favorite over Sinner. Alcaraz has won the last two titles at the All England Club, defeating Novak Djokovic in both of those finals.
Wimbledon will take place June 30 through July 13 in London, England.

After a flawless fortnight in Paris, Sinner's eye-catching run at French Open ends in heartbreak
PARIS (AP) — After a flawless fortnight in Paris, Jannik Sinner was on the brink of capturing his first French Open title on Sunday after a dominant run on the clay courts of Roland-Garros. Facing defending champion Carlos Alcaraz, the top-ranked Italian was firmly in control. Sinner's deep groundstrokes, excellent service, heavy top spin, and subtle variations had worn down Alcaraz, who found himself 5-3 down and trailing 0-40 in the fourth set, and facing three match points. At that moment, it felt like the best of all possible worlds for the 23-year-old Sinner. But then the momentum swung. Alcaraz fought back, saved the first match point when Sinner sent a forehand long. On the second, Sinner missed a return. The third ended with Alcaraz winning a short baseline exchange. Sinner had just let his chance slip away. From there, Alcaraz produced one of the greatest comeback in Roland-Garros history to win the longest final ever played on the Parisian dirt — 5 hours and 29 minutes — 4-6, 6-7 (4), 6-4, 7-6 (3), 7-6 (10-2). 'It's an amazing trophy, so I won't sleep tonight very well, but it's okay,' Sinner said during the trophy ceremony. Exciting rivalry There is hardly anything between the two best players in tennis at the moment, who have now combined to win the last six Grand Slam titles and appear poised to build one of the sport's most compelling rivalries in the years ahead. Sunday's duel delivered a match of rare intensity, filled with punishing baseline rallies, exquisite drop shots, and brilliant passing shots — thrilling a packed Court Philippe-Chatrier. 'This one hurts' 'Obviously, this one hurts,' he said. 'There's not so much to say right now. But again, I'm happy with how we're trying to improve every day and put myself in these kinds of positions. It was a very high-level match, that's for sure. I'm happy to be part of it. But yeah, the final result hurts.' It was a particularly tough ending for Sinner, who had not dropped a set on his way to the final, including a dominant semifinal win over three-time French Open champion Novak Djokovic. Before facing Alcaraz, Sinner had never lost a Grand Slam final, winning his first three. A victory would have made him just the fifth man in the Open Era to win three consecutive major titles. 'I'm pretty sure you are going to be a champion, not once but many, many times,' Alcaraz told him during the trophy ceremony. 'It is a privilege to share the court with you in every tournament, making history with you.' 'Now it's my time to take something from the close people I have,' he said. 'As I've always said, before my career started, I never would've imagined finding myself in this position. It wasn't even a dream because it felt so far away — I wasn't even thinking about it. Now I find myself here, playing the longest final in the history of Roland-Garros. It hurts, yes, but on the other hand, you can't go on crying.' ___
