Jannik Sinner is the overwhelming Wimbledon 2026 favourite at around -270 after two-time champion Carlos Alcaraz withdrew with a wrist injury, leaving Novak Djokovic a distant second on the outright board.
Wimbledon 2026 outright odds have been turned on their head: Jannik Sinner is now the runaway favourite to win the men’s singles title at roughly -270, an implied probability near 73%, after Carlos Alcaraz withdrew with a wrist injury. The Spaniard, a two-time Wimbledon champion priced around +150 before the injury, suffered the problem at the Barcelona Open and announced his exit on X. The tournament runs from June 29 to July 12, 2026 at the All England Club, and the withdrawal has reshaped every market on the board.
Key Facts:
• Jannik Sinner priced at -270 to win the men’s title, an implied probability of about 73% — SportsbookReview
• Carlos Alcaraz, the two-time defending-era champion, withdrew with a wrist injury after carrying +150 odds — SportsbookReview, 2026
• Novak Djokovic is the second favourite at about +600 (a 14% implied chance) — SportsbookReview
• Wimbledon 2026 runs June 29 to July 12, 2026 at the All England Club — Wimbledon
How Alcaraz’s withdrawal reshaped the Wimbledon market
The line move was dramatic. Before the injury, bet365 had priced Alcaraz and Sinner as near co-favourites — Alcaraz 6/5, Sinner 7/5 — with the pair expected to collide in the final. Alcaraz’s exit removed the one man with the grass-court pedigree and head-to-head record to trouble Sinner over best-of-five sets, and the Italian’s price collapsed to around -270 (American odds, where the minus figure shows the stake needed to win $100), or about 1.37 decimal — an implied 73%. That is high for a Grand Slam outright with seven rounds to play. Djokovic sits a long way back at about +600, with Alexander Zverev and Jack Draper around 16/1 and Taylor Fritz near 22/1.
Why this matters for the outright market
A 73% favourite changes the shape of every related market. With Sinner so short, value-minded interest typically rotates to each-way places, set-betting, and the second-favourite line rather than the headline outright.
“I’d look into a more enticing prop wager like him to win the tournament without dropping a set,” said Mike Spector, analyst at SportsbookReview, who expects Sinner to win the title but sees better relative value in the props than in the short outright price. The favourite is likely to win, but the headline odds offer thin reward — that is the central tension of the market. Our Queen’s Club 2026 odds preview tracked the same Alcaraz-out effect on the warm-up event, while our Travelers Championship outright odds show how a dominant favourite compresses an individual-sport board.
Picks & Predictions
Favourite: Jannik Sinner at -270 moneyline (American) / 1.37 (decimal) to win the men’s title, an implied probability near 73%, per SportsbookReview. Novak Djokovic is next at about +600 (7.00). Sinner’s number-one ranking and the removal of Alcaraz from the draw justify the short price.
Predicted result: Sinner to lift the title, with Djokovic the most likely finalist opponent — the model leans Sinner in four sets, with Draper the value name to reach the semi-finals on home grass.
Markets worth a look:
- Jack Draper each-way to reach the final — the leading British hope has a grass-friendly serve and home support, and the 16/1 outright implies room in the place market (Oddschecker).
- Sinner to win without dropping a set — flagged by SportsbookReview as better relative value than his short outright, given his straight-sets dominance this season.
- Aryna Sabalenka each-way in the women’s draw — at around +275 the women’s market is far more open than the men’s.
What to fade: Sinner’s -270 outright at face value — over seven best-of-five rounds, a 73% implied price offers slim reward for real injury and upset risk, which is why the props and place markets draw more interest.
