Ash Barty’s odds drift in US Open betting

On the back of the US Open draw announcement, Australian superstar Ash Barty has drifted from $8 to $10 with TAB despite a favourable draw avoiding any top ten seeds in the early rounds.

Patriotic punters are still siding with the crafty Queenslander as she currently holds most of the money wagered on the US Open Women’s Singles winner.

A scintillating first round encounter between Serena Williams ($1.30) and Maria Sharapova ($3.40) looms as their storied rivalry continues with a 22^nd clash and surprisingly their first at Flushing Meadows.

On the Men’s side, Serbian World Number 1 Novak Djokovic leads the way holding most of the money wagered on Men’s Singles winner as he eyes a fourth title at Flushing Meadows.

The next best backed are scattered with Rafael Nadal, Daniil Medvedev, Roger Federer receiving punter support.

Spearheading the Australian contingent is Nick Kyrgios ($26), Alex De Minaur ($81) youngster Alexei Popyrin ($501), Jordan Thompson ($501), Thanasi Kokkinakis ($501) and journeyman John Millman ($501).
