Updated Odds for Novak Djokovic, Top Stars After Jannik Sinner Eliminated from Roland-Garros Bracket

Jannik Sinner's stunning upset against Juan Manuel Cerúndolo during Thursday's second round at the French Open has opened the door for a new favorite in the men's draw.

Alexander Zverev, the No. 2 seed, is now the favorite (+190), according to FanDuel Sportsbook, followed by Novak Djokovic (+400), Casper Ruud (+900), Rafael Jódar (+1000) and Francisco Cerúndolo (+1500).

With Carlos Alcaraz missing the tournament due to an injury, the sport's top two players—and the two players who made up last year's final—are no longer in the mix for the Roland-Garros title.

Djokovic is a three-time winner of the event, last claiming the crown in 2023, though Zverev did reach the title match during the 2024 event. Zverev has yet to drop a set at this year's tournament, while Djokovic has dropped two.

Zverev has yet to win this season, though he's lost to Sinner four times in either the semifinals or the final at a tournament, while Alcaraz knocked him out of the Australian Open semifinals. With those two out of his way, his path to a first career Grand Slam title has never been cleaner.

But underestimate Djokovic at your peril. He hasn't played a ton this season but reached the Australian Open final, knocking out Sinner in the semifinals before losing to Alcaraz in the final. No man in history has ever won more than his 24 Grand Slam titles, so he'll be more than up for the task, though he's won the fewest at Roland-Garros.

Ruud has reached the final twice (2022-23), though he's only reached one final this season, losing to Sinner in Rome. He's the No. 15 seed for a reason, and his betting line is likely down to his past success at Roland-Garros.

Jódar is the No. 27 seed and has never made it past the third round in any Grand Slam. At just 19, he's an ascending talent and did win the Grand Prix Hassan II.

Finally, Cerúndolo won the IEB+ Argentina Open, though he's never gotten past the fourth round of a Grand Slam. His brother blew the field wide open, defeating Sinner, and it would be quite the showing for the family if Francisco won the entire event. But he has long odds for a reason.
