• Australian Open champion Naomi Osaka (+1000) has never advanced past the third round in Roland-Garros
  

Rafael Nadal is the favorite to win his 14th-career French Open this May and breaks a tie with Roger Federer atop the all-time Grand Slam standings with his 21st major title.

The Spaniard is gunning for his fifth-straight victory at Roland-Garros, but there hasn’t been a repeat winner on the women’s side of the tournament since Justine Henin-Hardenne won three in a row from 2005 to 2007.

While tennis’ second Slam of the season is still months away, let’s check the opening odds for the French Open for both the Men’s and Women’s draws to see if there are any early values.

Men’s French Open 2021 Odds

Does Nadal have anything left?

Rafael Nadal (+110) was cruising Down Under before a shocking quarter-finals defeat to World No. 6 Stefanos Tsitsipas that saw him lose despite being two sets up. Novak Djokovic (+225) went on to win his ninth Australian Open title and 18th Grand Slam trophy, pulling him within two of Nadal and Roger Federer (+1600), who should be healthy for the French Open after missing a whole year recovering from two knee surgeries.

Given Nadal has only won twice in his last 16 appearances at majors outside of Paris, the pressure will be squarely on the 34-year-old to hold serve on clay with Djokovic breathing down his neck. The 33-year-old Serbian is the last man not named Nadal to win at Roland Garros, claiming the 2016 title, but the Spaniard thumped him in last year’s final in straight sets.

Dominic Thiem (+400) didn’t get past the quarter-finals in the 2020 French Open, but he defeated Djokovic in the semi-finals in 2019 before losing to Rafa in the final. The 2020 US Open champion also fell to Nadal in the 2018 final and the 2017 semi-finals, so the snake-bitten Austrian has enjoyed considerable success in Paris despite never winning.

While longshots have rarely paid off in an era dominated by Federer, Nadal and Djokovic, Diego Schwartzman (+3300) is a solid bet considering he made the semi-finals last year and the quarter-finals in 2018 before losing to Nadal both times.

Swiatek and Halep co-favored in women’s draw

Reigning champion Iga Swiatek (+500) and 2018 winner Simona Halep (+500) are co-favorites in the Women’s 2021 French Open, with 2019 victor Ashleigh Barty (+1000) and 2016 champ Garbiñe Muguruza (+1000) also expected to be in the mix.

Past performance has not been indicative of future results at Roland-Garros, however, as Serena Williams (+1400) and Maria Sharapova have been the only two women to win the tournament more than once over the past decade.

Simply stunning ✨

Quickly becoming the new face of women’s tennis, Naomi Osaka (+1000) may have trouble following up her Australian Open triumph given that she has never advanced past the third round in Paris. Bianca Andreescu (+1000) is an even worse bet as she recently hurt herself again after just coming off a 15-month injury layoff.

The best betting approach to the women’s draw may be to monitor who’s playing well on clay heading into the tournament in May. Check back for our updated picks in the weeks and months to come.

Djokovic won 64 percent of his total service points and converted on eight of his 22 break points. Djokovic got 67 percent of his first serves in play and saved 11 of his 15 break points. Djokovic cruised in the first two sets and then allowed things to get away from him, forcing him to play five sets and nearly four hours. It’s going to be interesting to see how Djokovic recovers from possible fatigue. Djokovic hopes to win his second French Open title and his 18th grand slam title overall. Djokovic is 1-3 in final appearances at the French Open, but he’s won each of his last five grand slam final appearances overall. Djokovic has won 15 straight matches on clay court.

Nadal French Open 2020 Odds

Rafael Nadal is coming off a straight sets win over Diego Schwartzman that took 31 games to decide. In the victory, Nadal won 68 percent of his first serve points and 53 percent of his second serve points. Nadal won 63 percent of his total service points and converted on six of his nine break points. Nadal got 69 percent of his first serves in play and saved nine of his 12 break points.

Nadal is 13-0 in French Open final appearances and has won nine of his last 12 grand slam final appearances overall. Nadal has won eight of his last nine matches on clay court.

These two have played 55 times and Djokovic has won 29 of those matches, including the most recent match this year in the ATP Cup. Djokovic has won 11 of the last 14 matches against Nadal. However, Nadal has won eight of the last 13 matches on clay against Djokovic. Nadal is also 9-6 against Djokovic in grand slam matches.

Nadal French Open Odds

Djokovic didn’t do himself any favors by having to play extra tennis to get this point, as he’s going to do a ton of running to have a chance in this one. Either way, Nadal has to be the pick here, as this is his tournament, winning the title 13 times and not losing a single final appearance. Also, Nadal has been the sharper, better player, not even dropping a set up to this point. We don’t get Djokovic as an underdog often, so I can see the case there, but that’s about the only edge you have there.

Nadal wins his 20th grand slam title.
