The US Open Favourites
There are a few players who come as the favorites in every competition. The likes of Aryna Sabalenka, Iga Swiatek, Coco Gauff, and a couple of other players have reached the last stages on many occasions. This season too we witnessed three different winners in all three Grand Slams held. So, who is going to be the winner this time? Here is a look at the betting odds of five favorite players to win The US Open 2024 women’s singles.
5. Jessica Pegula
The 30-year-old US player is the fifth favorite. Pegula has improved her game in the last couple of years. However, she hasn’t managed to get past the quarter-final stage of any Grand Slam. Her odds range between 10/1 to 14/1 on different betting sites.
4. Elena Rybakina
Elena Rybakina is a big name in the women’s division. The Australian Open 2023 winner is searching for her second Grand Slam. Rybakina has a poor record in the competition.

Rybakina’s odds vary from 8/1 to 17/2 on different betting sites.
3. Coco Gauff
Coco Gauff might be the third favorite but with the home support, she will be heading as the favorite to win back-to-back US Open. The 20-year-old won her first Grand Slam last year and that is her only appearance in a Grand Slam final. Gauff made two semi-final appearances this year. She will be a bit confident knowing about the home support. Her odds vary from 7/1 to 8/1.
2. Iga Swiatek
The 23-year-old Polish player has won five Grand Slams. She won her fourth French Open this year and made third-round exits in the other two tournaments. Swiatek won the US Open 2022 and heads as the second favorite to win the crown this time. She failed to show consistency by making early exits in some tournaments.
