Carlos Alcaraz is the 2nd outright favorite to win the tournament at +350. Carlos finished 4th last season at Wimbledon but won the US Open championship, one of the four majors. Alcaraz lost to Djokovic in the semis at the French Open this season, dealing with some severe cramping during their match. Carlos will be a top contender to compete for the championship.

He also reached the finals in the 2022 Australian Open before eventually losing to Rafael Nadal. Daniel has historically been strong on grass over his career, having won 67% of his matches on grass. He was 8-3 on grass last year, but did not participate in the Wimbledon championships due to pontifical ties. Danill enters the tournament as a +2000 Vegas odds favorite to win outright. This ranks him 4th on the list of favorites.
Nick Kyragos was an unseeded participant in last season’s Wimbledon championship and progressed all the way to the finals before losing to Novak Djokovic , 4–6, 6–3, 6–4, 7–6(7–3). Nick is currently +4000 in current Vegas odds and is a worthy competitor and is capable of playing with the best.
Andy Murray, a 3x Major champion and twice at the Wimbledon championship. Murray looks to capture a 4th major ending in what would be an incredible career. Currently Murray is 39th in the world and lost in the first round of the Queen’s Club Championships. Murray will be unseeded for Wimbledon as a result. That could mean a nightmare pairing in the first round for the 36-year-old.
