There’s also a prop bet available at CRIS regarding the heavy hitters on the Men’s side:
Djokovic wins: -102
Nadal, Federer, or Murray wins: +235
Any other player wins: +245
Will this be another year where there are ‘longshot’ winners, or will it be Djokovic’s and Serena’s tourneys to lose?

Heard that sometimes the odds are similar but more upset prone in best of 3 games.
