I've spent over 20 years inside the betting industry. I'll guide you to avoid the hype, ignore the noise, and steer clear of the common pitfalls that catch out everyday punters.

  • Djokovic was prevented from playing in Australia due to his unvaccinated status.
  • French restrictions have been eased making an appearance an 87% chance according to bookmakers
  • Betting sites give an even better chance that 90% for a Wimbledon Grand Slam appearance.

Novak Djokovic looks to have clearance to make attempt a third win at The French Open at Roland Garros this year as French restrictions are eased around the COVID situation and, of course, Djokovic's unvaccinated status.

Betting exchange Smarkets have provided some odds on the probability of appearing in either France or at Wimbledon 2022 ahead of the next 2 Grand Slam events.

After the Australia Situation, Djokovic has an 87% chance of playing in France and better than 90% of appearing at Wimbledon according to top bookmakers.

The issue caused the Serb to be unable to play at the Australian Open in January as he was kicked out, and from that, there were doubts as to the next Grand Slam he would be able to contest, but with the easing of restrictions, unless something turns those around it looks most likely he will be able to make an appearance and play at both and be available for betting at tennis betting sites again.

Djokovic's odds of winning a Grand Slam this season

Australia has gone which leaves France, Wimbledon and the US open to aim for.

What chance does Novak Djokovic have of picking up a Grand Slam title in 2022?

Djokovic could have been playing for a 10th Australian Open title in 2022 but for the ban, so let's take at betting sites odds of winning the remaining events if he makes them.

In terms of popularity, tennis tipsters think his chance of winning Wimbledon and adding a 7th title are greater than the other two events

Open Previous Wins Odds Probability
French Open SIX 13/5 27.78%
Wimbledon SIX 5/4 44.44%
Us Open THREE 6/4 40.0%


Interesting that bookmakers give Djokovic only 4% less chance of winning in the US where he has only won three Grand Slams in the past as opposed to Wimbledon where he has 6 wins, the same as in France.
