ATP – 2024 French Open Round 1

• When: Tuesday, May 28th, 2024

Holger Rune vs. Daniel Evans

34-year-old Daniel Evans hasn’t had a great singles season. Evans is just 3-11 this season, which is the main reason he’s such a massive underdog versus Holger Rune.

The -7.5 spread line favorite is 19-11 in singles matches this season. At just 21, Rune has already won 4 titles. Rune sends Evans packing in a cover victory.

Tennis Betting Pick: Holger Rune -7.5 -110

Casper Ruud vs. Felipe Alves

Underdog Felipe Alves won three matches in fine fashion to qualify for the French Open. But Alves didn’t play against an opponent even close to Casper Ruud’s talent level.

Ruud is 31-9 in singles matches this season. He beat Tomas Machac in the finals at the Geneva Open in a warm-up to the French Open. The +100 payout makes Ruud the game total play.

Tennis Betting Pick: Casper Ruud -8.0 +100

Federico Coria vs. Taylor Fritz

Coria is batting .500 this ATP season, going 8-8 in singles matches. In his last, Coria lost to Denis Shapovalov in the first round at the Gonet Geneva Open.

Taylor Fritz fell to Alex Michelson in his first Geneva Open match. But although Fritz lost, overall, he’s having a good season, winning a singles title and going 22-9 in singles matches. Give Fritz the nod to cover.

Tennis Betting Pick: Taylor Fritz -7 -106

WTA – 2024 French Open Round 1

• When: Tuesday, May 28th, 2024

Aryna Sabalenka vs. Erika Andreeva

19-year-old Erika Andreeva is going to learn a lot if she loses to Aryna Sabalenka on Tuesday. Andreeva has the talent to be a decent tennis player. She doesn’t have the experience to come close to beating Sabalenka, though.

Aryna wins this. Not only does Aryna win, but she also covers by blasting Andreeva by at least 8 games.

Tennis Betting Pick: Aryna Sabalenka -7 -103

Yulia Putintseva vs. Sloane Stephens

Putintseva versus Stephens should be one of Tuesday’s top matchups. The -143 favorite is playing decent tennis, but the odds make her opponent the more attractive play.

Stephens lost to Magdalena Frech in her last match. Still, Sloane won the Capfinances Rouen Metropole earlier in the year. Putintseva won the last head-to-head. Stephens exacts revenge on Tuesday by winning the rematch.

Tennis Betting Pick: Sloane Stephens +112

Qinwen Zheng vs. Alize Cornet

Cornet fell to Emma Navarro in her last by 7 games. That’s not a good sign heading into a matchup against one of the WTA’s rising stars.

Qinwen Zheng beat Shelby Rogers, Linda Noskova, and Naomi Osaka on her way to the quarterfinals at the Internazionale BNL d’Italia. Coco Gauff sent Zheng packing two sets and a tiebreaker. Zheng covers versus Cornet.

Tennis Betting Pick: Qinwen Zheng -6.5 -101
