US Open Tennis – 22/1 Accumulator for Sunday’s matches

The action continues at the US Open and we’ll be picking out our best bets for Sunday’s action and combining them into an accumulator.

Dimitrov to beat Rublev

Starting off we’ll be siding with Grigor Dimitrov to beat Andrey Rublev. Dimitrov is enjoying a great 2024 and has seemingly reignited his career in the last year and a half. The Bulgarian, who was formally a world number three, is currently at 9th in the ATP rankings thanks to some of the success he’s had this year.

Girgor is consistently reaching the latter stages of slams now and is playing a really solid game. This is the deepest he has been in the US Open in the past five years, and I think that’s a testament to how well he is playing.

Dimitrov is yet to drop a single set at the US Open this year winning all three of his matches 3-0 without facing much danger. He has only dropped serve twice this tournament where the same can not be said for Rublev. 

Rublev was really close to being eliminated in the second round by Arthur Rinderknech who had a two set lead but ultimately, Rublev’s experience helped him prevail. I think the form is more on Dimitrov’s side and in the head-to-head, these two are barely separated. Dimitrov looks like a good play as an underdog here. 

Casper Ruud to beat Taylor Fritz

It’s hard to argue that Casper Ruud hasn’t been one of the best players on the tour in the past few years and he’s had some great success at the US Open in the past. The Norwegian was beaten by Carlos Alcaraz in the final in 2022 and whilst that was heartbreaking for him, it shows how capable a player he is at this tournament.

Ruud comes in as a big underdog for this one at 2/1 and that price seems to big to ignore. Fritz is a great player and will have the crowd right behind him during this tournament with it being in his home country but I worry the big occasion will get to Fritz. The American can be inconsistent quite frequently and sometimes you never know what you’re getting what version of Taylor you’re going to get on the day.

Ruud leads the head-to-head 2-0, where he won in four sets at the French Open this year and also recorded a win on hard court in 2022. 2/1 seems like a price that is too big for Ruud to win this one 

Badosa to win 2-0

Up next, we’ve got Badosa vs Wang, and I think it’ll be a comfortable win for Badosa. The Spaniard is finally back to enjoying tennis again after some unfortunate injuries and she has looked great recently.

Badosa has won eight of her last 10 matches with all of these being on the hard court, a surface in which Badosa has a 64% winrate on. In those games she has taken out some big names like Townsend, Tauson and Kalinskaya. 

On the other hand, Wang is a much less experienced player and has never reached a quarter-final of a WTA 250+ event. While she is playing some great tennis, the 30-year-old lacks real big game experience, which is something Badosa has tons of. We’ll be siding with her to win 2-0.

Gauff to win 2-0

Finishing things off we’ll be siding with Cori Gauff to win 2-0 against Navvaro. Gauff was always promised to be a great talent when she burst on to the scene and it’s fair to say she’s starting to deliver on that with a grand slam already secured. Gauff was a finalist here at the US Open in 2021 and three years later she is trying to get there again at just 20-years-old.

Navvaro has been playing some great tennis as of late but I worry that on the hard court Gauff will be way too good for her. The most recent win for Navvaro in this head-to-head matchup came at Wimbledon which was on grass, a surface Gauff hasn’t really proved herself on.

After adding this selection to the rest of the other three we’re left with a 22/1 accumulator with SkyBet!
