Men’s Olympic Tennis Odds Best Bet
Pablo Carreno Busta (+456 to win Bronze)
While Djokovic was a minus-money pick and the best player in the world, the value in the final days of Olympic tennis comes from betting on him to lose two matches in a row. Djokovic is the top-ranked player in tennis, playing some of the best matches of his career, but at -576 he's too heavily favored given the potential Olympic letdown.
After winning each of the first three Grand Slams of 2021, Djokovic's Olympic semi's loss prevents him from winning the rare golden slam. Carreno Busta has already taken out some of the top talent in the tournament, including Daniil Medvedev, and will position himself for another upset. Though Djokovic is rightfully the heavy favorite, Carreno Busta's implied probability of 17.99%, is just too low to pass up.

Olympic Women’s Tennis Odds Best Bet
Belinda Bencic (+114 to win Gold)
Belinda Bencic has never made the final of a major tournament, with the US Open semifinal being her best Grand Slam finish. However, she's positioned herself to take home gold at Tokyo 2020.
Bencic is playing some of the best tennis of her career recently, reaching No. 4 in the world rankings in 2020, and sitting at No. 12 currently. In her last 24 matches, she's 17-7, better than her all-time 63% win-rate. Bencic has been pushed in her Olympic matches thus far, reaching a third set in three of her five Tokyo competitions, but has come out victorious every time. Facing a young and unproven Markéta Vondroušová, who is currently ranked 42nd in the world at age 22, the plus-money on Bencic is too good to pass up.
