A Masters 1000 on the 2022 ATP Tour, the event is set to kick off on Halloween. The winner of the 2021 tournament, Novak Djokovic is slated to enter this tournament as the seventh overall seed. In addition to the “Joker,” the top four contenders for the tournament contain a bevy of tennis legends (Rafael Nadal) to up-and-coming stars (Carlos Alcaraz). The latter enters the tournament as the No. 1 overall seed and is currently ranked as the No. 1 overall player in the world.
For this report, SBS will be going over what to expect from the top four favorites at the tournament along with the predicted winner and some other tennis wagering tips.
Favorites to Win The 2022 Rolex Paris Masters | |
---|---|
Carlos Alcaraz | +250 |
Rafael Nadal | +400 |
Casper Ruud | +600 |
Daniil Medevev | +750 |
The 2022 campaign has been a huge year for Alcaraz after winning his first-ever Grand Slam title in the U.S. Open earlier this year. In addition to that win, Alcaraz in the process became the youngest player ever to become the No. 1 player in the world at 19 years, and four months of age. In addition to his, U.S. Alcaraz has also been victorious this year at both the Miami and Madrid Opens. With a winning percentage of 83% in 2022, it would appear that the Spaniard has certainly earned his place as the best player in the world.
Recognized as the second overall seed for the Paris Masters tournament, Nadal is certainly no stranger to the spotlight and one of the most recognizable players in all of tennis. The Spanish legend has certainly had a fantastic 2022 even by his standards with wins at both the Australian and French Opens. With an official grand slam event record of 22-1, the 36-year-old future tennis Hall of Famer has had another stellar campaign and is one to watch in Paris.
One of the best Norwegian tennis players of all time at just 23 years of age, Ruud is recognized as the No. 3 overall player in the world. Ruud has won nine ATP Tour singles titles, eight of which being on clay courts. Moreover, he is also the first Norwegian man to win an ATP singles title, and the first to reach major finals (which he did at the 2022 French and U.S. Opens). One of the top young stars in the sport, he will look to continue his ascent to the top starting on Halloween.
A former No. 1 overall player in the world (as recently as earlier this year), Medvedev won the U.S. Open in 2021 and also made the finals of the Australian Open in 2022. Achieving a breakthrough campaign in 2019, Medvedev reached six consecutive tournament finals in a row, including the U.S. Open. For this year, he currently holds a winning percentage of 73% and an overall record of 40-15 at the time of this writing. He is also the winner of the 2020 Paris Masters event.
Prediction: Another thrilling installment of the Paris Masters, peg Alcaraz here to continue his dominant run in 2022 with another great win.
