NEW YORK : Serena Williams' unexpected run to the the U.S. Open third round has sliced her odds of winning a record-tying 24th Grand Slam title, Caesars Sportsbook said on Thursday.
Williams only trails Poland's world number one Iga Swiatek , Caroline Garcia , compatriot Coco Gauff , Ludmilla Samsonova and Aryna Sabalenka in the odds on her capturing a seventh crown at Flushing Meadows. After being the underdog against Kontaveit, Williams is the favourite to beat Australia's Ajla Tomljanovic on Friday in a match that is expected to attract a frenzy of betting interest.
