From March 6 to 17, Indian Wells will host the men’s Masters and the women’s WTA-1000 tournament. The competition will traditionally bring together the strongest tennis players in the world.
Betsity analysts named the main contenders for the titles.
According to experts, the main favorite of the men’s tournament will be Novak Djokovic. The Serbian has won this Masters five times, although his last victory here dates back to 2016. In BET CITY you can bet on the success of the most titled tennis player on the planet with odds of 2.65.
The main rival of the world number one should be the Italian Jannik Sinner. The odds of 4.00 are offered for the triumph of the 2024 Australian Open champion.
The top 3 favorites are completed by Carlos Alcaraz, who won Indian Wells last season. The odds are 5.00 that the 20-year-old Spaniard will defend the title.
Russian tennis player Daniil Medvedev is fourth on the list of contenders for the trophy. The victory of last year’s finalist of the American Masters can be taken for 8.00.
The championship chances of other Russians are assessed much more modestly. You can bet on Andrey Rublev with a coefficient of 40.0, on the success of Karen Khachanov they give 60.0, the victory of Roman Safiullin goes for 200.
The main favorite of the women’s tournament is Poland’s Iga Swiatek, with 3.70 odds for her victory. The current leader of the world rankings became the champion of Indian Wells in 2022, and last season lost in the semifinals to the representative of Kazakhstan Elena Rybakina, who eventually won the cup.
Rybakina’s chances of defending the title are estimated at 9.00, and Shventek’s main competitor, according to analysts, should be Belarusian Arina Sabalenka. They offer to bet on the success of the AO-2024 champion with odds of 4.50.
Experts believe that the best chances of taking the title among Russian players are Mirra Andreeva and Anna Kalinskaya. You can bet on them in BETCITY for 45.0.
The title ambitions of other Russian women are assessed more modestly. They offer odds of 50.0 for the championship of Lyudmila Samsonova, and 80.0 for the success of Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.
