2026 French Open Forecast

A Look At The Draw

Men’s Quarter 1

Jannik Sinner is the insane -275 favorite entering Roland Garros, the top name in Quarter 1 with a pretty easy draw to reach the semifinals. There could be some road bumps, however, but it’s unlikely he loses this event barring a bad day that only a handful of players can capitalize on. One is, ironically, in his quarter. Alexander Bublik presents the best chance to knock Sinner out of Paris prior to the semifinals, but that is still a long shot. Even Luciano Darderi, who is playing better lately, won’t be enough in a potential all Italian meeting in the Round 16.

Ben Shelton is also a name many will circle as a potential upset threat to Sinner, but that’s just based on name. Shelton isn’t the strongest on clay, and also has a very difficult outing in Round 1 against Daniel Merida Aguilar – who has looked exceptional on clay this season. The bottom of Quarter 1 might actually see an unexpected name come out – such as Raphael Collignon, Tallon Griekspoor or even Stefanos Tsitsipas. Still, Shelton and Bublik are the likely quarterfinal foes for Sinner with the latter our money on between the two.

Quarter 1 Pick: Jannik Sinner -275
Quarter 1 Sleeper: Alexander Bublik +10000

Men’s Quarter 2

Good luck Chuck. This is a nightmare quarter to pick a winner for with Daniil Medvedev nestled at the bottom as the top seed. One would think Meddy is a given pick, especially how he has seemingly improved on clay court this season. However, he will have a difficult match in Round 3 against Francisco Cerundolo or possibly Gael Monfils. Above Medvedev lies Flavio Cobolli, who will have clay court advantage, along with Learner Tien who looks to be steadily improving on the clay court surface.

The true dark horses lie in the top section of Quarter 2, with Felix Auger Aliassime as the top seed but struggling lately. He could face Roman Andres Burruchaga in Round 2, who might be the best dark horse in Quarter 2 to get behind. Below him lies Alejandro Tabilo, Valentin Vacherot and Cam Norrie. All three are also good dark horses to consider but Tabilo is coming off an injury withdrawal while Vacherot’s only clay success in 2026 came from a venue he grew up on. Norrie and R.A.B. are you’re best dark horses in Quarter 2 if looking outside the bottom section where most favorites lie.

Quarter 2 Pick: Daniil Medvedev +5000
Quarter 2 Sleeper: Roman Andres Burruchaga +30000
Quarter 2 Sleeper: Learner Tien +10000

Men’s Quarter 3

This is a fun quarter, also very difficult to pick a winner from. We’ve been beating our chest on Casper Ruud for three weeks now, as his odds have drastically shortened since his recent runs on clay. While Ruud is still a top sleeper pick to win the entire event, his quarter is very difficult and for the first time since clay court season began, we have doubts for Ruud.

He will be tested early against (potentially) Hamad Medjedovic before possibly facing Tommy Paul. If he gets past those two, that leaves a potential showdown with Novak Djokovic. It won’t be easy for Joker to get to the second week, however, with Dino Prizmic (who already beat Novak this year), Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard and Joao Fonseca all lie. This is just the bottom section.

The top section is just as difficult to predict as Alex De Minaur is seemingly revived with his latest event in Hamburg. He is the top name in Quarter 3 but sees Alexander Blockx, Mariano Navone and Jakub Mensik all in his section. Below him also lies Tomas Martin Etcheverry and Camilo Ugo Carabelli – solid clay court Argentinians who can cause problems for most players. Also, the winner of Ignaico Buse vs. Andrey Rublev in Round 1 lies in this section – so it will be tough for De Minaur to advance even with his recently solid play.

Quarter 3 Pick: Casper Ruud +2800
Quarter 3 Sleeper: Tommy Paul +10000

Men’s Quarter 4

Alexander Zverev is the top seed in Quarter 4, at the very bottom of the Roland Garros men’s draw. This quarter present opportunity for a few players, namely Rafael Jodar who has some solid luck with the draw laid out in front of him. Taylor Fritz is the top name in Jodar’s section, so the young Spaniard will reap the benefits of a player who is currently far in form from his current ranking. Jodar really has no excuse to be eliminated before the Round of 16, where his biggest threats to reaching the quarterfinals would be Jiri Lehecka or Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.

While talented, he is young and we are talking best-of-five set matches, so it’s tough to envision him going far into the second week. If Jodar can get past an out-of-form Fritz and the winner of the two mentioned names above (Lehecka, ADF) then he has to deal with a couple of heavy favorites in Arthur Fils or Zverev. Personally, we like the former based on both form and value. While Jodar is the name many will gravitate to winning this quarter, keep in mind he is still very inexperienced in this type of event while Zverev, Fils and even Karen Khachanov present solid four-digit value as a couple of top veterans.

Quarter 4 Pick: Alexander Zverev +1100
Quarter 4 Sleeper: Arthur Fils +2500

Women’s Quarter 1

While Aryna Sabalenka is the top seed and at the top of Quarter 1, she is no longer the favorite to win with Iga Swiatek overtaking her in the odds. This should give you an indication of Sabby’s form entering, not the best. However, her draw is set up nicely for a great bounce back with Jessica Bouzas Maneiro out of the gates. While Daria Kasatkina is playing some of her best tennis in a long time, she will have Zeynep Sonmez in Round 1 – so Sabby’s real test shouldn’t come until Round 3 which is still early in a major for the No. 1 player in the world.

Emma Navarro is playing better as well, but still not enough conviction to take out Sabby in Round 3. Iva Jovic also has a few early tough tests to even get to Round 3, but the name to possibly watch is Naomi Osaka. Her confidence on clay is as strong as its ever been, and poses a real threat to not only reach Round 3, but move past Sabalenka. Under this section lies a few contenders to possibly take out Sabby as well, should the No. 1 player reach the quarters.

Jessica Pegula has great value to test, and typically gets to quarters in major events at minimum. Victoria Mboko is the other name that can beat Sabalenka, but her clay court season has lacked consistency while she is also going to arrive late as she is currently playing (and winning) in Strasbourg. There seems to be great value worth testing around Sabalenka in this quarter based on Osaka, Pegula and Mboko’s presence combined with Sabalenka’s current form.

Quarter 1 Pick: Jessica Pegula +5000
Quarter 1 Sleeper: Naomi Osaka +5000

Women’s Quarter 2

Defending Roland Garros champion Coco Gauff lies in Quarter 2, sitting at the very top with a tough Round 1 meeting against fellow American Taylor Townsend. Coco is the definition of resilience, but her draw is very difficult with a (very) confident Anastasia Potapova potentially waiting in Round 3. The winner of that hypothetical meeting has a chance to win the quarter, with Elisabetta Cocciaretto and Anna Kalinskaya as the top names underneath them. Both Cocciaretto and Kalinskaya are potential threats to go on runs, but the conviction lies between the potential Gauff-Potapova match winner.

Under Gauff’s section is a fun part of the quarter to test underdogs with, as Amanda Anisimova is the top seed here but dealing with a wrist injury that is currently taped during her practices. Linda Noskova looks like a great player to test the market with here, but has a tough Round 1 meeting against Maria Sakkari along with a possible meeting with either Elise Mertens or Qinwen Zheng in Round 3.

While Noskova is a suitable sleeper outside Anisimova, the true dark horse here is Ann Li who has quietly thrived this clay court season. However, she is currently in Strasbourg (also winning) so showing up late to Paris with fatigue is a concern. Gauff and Potapova are the safest names in this quarter, but other value lies with Mertens, Qinwen and Li – Li being the best to consider outside Gauff/Potapova.

Quarter 2 Pick: Coco Gauff +650
Quarter 2 Sleeper: Anastasia Potapova +8000

Women’s Quarter 3

Quarter 3 is a gauntlet, with about four names to seriously consider reaching the semifinals. Let’s start at the top with Elina Svitolina, who is typically a safe Round 1 pick along with her Roma form. However, she faces kryptonite in Anna Bondar. Bondar beat Svitolina in the first round of Madrid this season along with the first round of the U.S. Open in 2025. Not only that, but Belinda Bencic lies under Svit’s section. Much like Jodar for the men, Svit will be the flashy pick that might be better to fade.

At the bottom of Quarter 3 lies the tournament favorite and future Hall of Famer Iga Swiatek, but has a big issue in the draw much like Svitolina. Iga, potentially, will have to face Jelena Ostapenko in Round 3. Penko has won all six meetings against Swiatek, so this is a concern for Iga bettors and a reason (much like Svitoina) to avoid the flashy pick. Marta Kostyuk would be the next name up to consider betting on, a solid 2026 season that goes beyond her recent clay court tournament wins.

Quarter 3 Pick: Marta Kostyuk +2500
Quarter 3 Sleeper: Belinda Bencic +10000

Women’s Quarter 4

While Elena Rybakina is the No. 2 seed in Paris, she is playing like the No. 1 seed and has a nice path to the second week. Then things get difficult as she will potentially have a meeting with Sorana Cirstea, who is literally playing the best tennis of her career. Cirstea’s path won’t be easy, but she is easily the most trustworthy name in a section of the brackets that has Jasmine Paolini, Dayana Yastremska, Emma Raducanu and Eva Lys. While the path for Rybakina becomes murky here, either Cirstea or Lena should be the only two names worth considering to reach the quarters from this section.

Above them lies two solid contender to winning Roland Garros in Karolina Muchova and Mirra Andreeva. The names lumped in their section aren’t overly concerning, much like the Cirstea-Rybakina section, as both Muchova and Andreeva have no excuse to not face each other in the Round of 16. So while Quarter 4 is pretty straightforward, it’s not until the second week when things get unpredictable. Of the names Rybakina, Cirstea, Muchova and Andreeva – it is a true toss up.

Quarter 4 Pick: Elena Rybakina +600
Quarter 4 Sleeper: Sorana Cirstea +20000
Quarter 4 Sleeper: Karolina Muchova +4000

2026 French Open Bets: Men’s Outright

Here are the men’s outright winners to consider having a futures ticket on. It truly is Sinner vs. the field so feel free to mix-and-match as Sinner is an expensive favorite entering the event.

Jannik Sinner

Current Odds: -275

It will be tough for anyone to beat Sinner, and with Carlitos now out there doesn’t seem to be a lot of people who can take him to five sets – where he is most vulnerable. With that said, a few players have been able to take sets off Sinner while other players have defeated him in 2025 (such as Bublik). Still, the only thing that should keep you from taking a ticket on Sinner is his asking price.

Casper Ruud

Current Odds: +2800

While Ruud has been out-of-form for quite some time, he seems back in the saddle as the clay court season is in full throttle. Where he goes after is up in the air, but he is currently playing the best tennis he has played in over a year and his results show he has no plans to slow down soon. He is a two-time finalist in Roland Garros and continues to win on clay courts leading into the event.

Arthur Fils

Current Odds: +2500

Other than a possible injury, there is nothing from keeping us taking a ticket on Fils. While his form might not be at the peak we saw earlier this season, he isn’t struggling by any means. The only question here is whether or not Fils is hurt, which is important for the size of this tournament in terms of sets and rounds needed to actually lift hardware.

Novak Djokovic

Current Odds: +1600

Although it’s not an injury, there is real fatigue concern with Djokovic. He is also coming off a bad loss to Dino Prizmic, whom he will have to possibly face in the draw. Still, he is considered one of the greatest ever and that’s worth a +1600 ticket. Don’t expect it to cash, but you’d feel silly if Joker wins Roland Garros and you passed up on a +1600 deal.

Alexander Zverev

Current Odds: +1100

While we’re not overly confident in this pick, it is necessary with his level of consistency and draw set up in front of him. We’re expecting an exit before the Final, but Zverev can absolutely get there and with +1100 odds he has great value to consider whether you like him or not.

2026 French Open Bets: Women’s Outright

Here are the women’s outright winners to consider having a futures ticket on, while there are more contenders worth wagering in the ‘Quarter Winner’ market instead. Both are listed below.

Elena Rybakina

Current Odds: +600

Lena’s odds were +700 a week ago, so she’s moving quickly with jumping over names such as Gauff and Andreeva. There are only two issues with taking Rybakina, the first is her mental toughness – which is improving. The second is her serve, because if she’s under 50% then the unforced errors typically follow. She controls her own destiny here and can easily cross the finish line as she has done so already this season.

Coco Gauff

Current Odds: +650

The defending champion is being overlooked again, which means its a great time to strike on taking her to win. She is also coming off a finals defeat in Roma, one she is angry about and will likely bounce back with focus and determination. While she is riddled with technical issues, she is still a multi-time Grand Slam champion at an age people forget is still (for most players) in development. Her athleticism and resilience will take her far, but buckle up for a bumpy ride.

Mirra Andreeva

Current Odds: +900

Andreeva’s odds have surprisingly drifted from +600 to +900, so grab the deal books are offering for seemingly no reason at all. Maybe they’re scared of the draw Andreeva is in, which includes Muchova and Rybakina – but Andreeva, but that’s not enough to negate her stellar clay court season with near four-digit odds. Strike on her now.

Marta Kostyuk

Current Odds: +2500

Kostyuk is another player who has seen odds drift following back-to-back tournament wins on clay courts, one of which was a 1000 level event. She went from +1800 to +2500 for simply getting some rest. Kostyuk has some of the best 2026 stats from a betting perspective which goes beyond the clay court season. If she enters Paris anywhere close to her season form, books will hit themselves for moving her odds from +1800 to +2500.

Jessica Pegula

Current Odds: +5000

Pegula is always a great ticket to have in big events, especially majors where she typically (at minimum) reaches the quarterfinals. Much like Coco, she is another player who shows great resilience in matches that she is trailing which makes a difficult out for opponents. Pegula’s draw is also very kind compared to the rest of the field, where Mboko would be her biggest threat before reaching (potentially) Sabalenka. Her +5000 are worth a take and the beneficiary of being in a section with Sabalenka, who is a hard fade at the moment.
