Jannik Sinner Favored to Win 2026 French Open After Carlos Alcaraz Withdrawal

Jannik Sinner is listed as a -280 favorite to win the 2026 French Open at FanDuel Sportsbook. The Italian has won 29 straight matches and five Masters titles during that stretch, dropping just three sets. Carlos Alcaraz's absence leaves Sinner without his primary rival in the draw. Four months earlier, Sinner had lost two of his first seven matches of the season.

Sinner's quarter contains no top-ranked opponents who have beaten him recently. He is projected to face Ben Shelton in the quarterfinals, a player Sinner has defeated in all nine prior meetings. Novak Djokovic received a favorable section of the bracket.

The 24-time Grand Slam winner has not lost before the quarterfinals at Roland Garros since 2009. Arthur Fils is listed at 27/1 at FanDuel. The French player has performed strongly on clay this season and would be the first Frenchman to win the tournament since Yannick Noah in 1983.

Daniil Medvedev is available at 50/1 on DraftKings. He has taken sets from Sinner in two matches this year, including the Rome Masters semifinals.
