THE Championships are upon us and both the women and the men have short-priced favourites for the title.
The two world number ones – Novak Djokovic and Serena Williams – are looking to go back-to-back at the All-England club.
Let’s take a look at the markets on both the men’s and the women’s side of the draw and pick out some of the betting specials that the bookmakers are providing punters heading into the world’s most prestigious Grand Slam tournament.
Men’s Wimbledon outright odds
Novak Djokovic is the $1.72 favourite to win his third Grand Slam title from three attempts this year, and Sportbet.com.au has taken the buzz around the Djoker and channelled it into a ‘Golden Slam’ market on its site.
Punters can get $5 if they believe Novak Djokovic can win all four Grand Slams in 2016 as well as the Olympic Gold Medal.
If you would prefer to stay out of the Olympic market, Sportsbet has a market on how many Grand Slam titles Novak will win in 2016.
Exactly three is the shortest priced bet at $1.94, all four is the next best at $3.24, while two is longest option at $3.72.
The man Djokovic defeated at both the Australian and French Open finals, Andy Murray, is the next best in the market, while former world number one, Roger Federer, is on the third line of betting at $11.
Nick Kyrgios is the best-placed Aussie at $22.
