Wimbledon odds: Djokovic huge fave with Nadal out

Oddsmakers see Wimbledon as Novak Djokovic’s tournament to lose now that chief rival Rafael Nadal is no longer in the field. Djokovic opened as the tourney favorite around +176 but is minus money heading into the second week of Wimbledon.

Six-time Wimbledon champion Roger Federer is the player with the next shortest odds at +326. Federer last won at the All England Club in 2009 and he hasn't had much luck against the tourney favorite. Federer is just 1-7 in his last eight matches against Novak.

Things are much more open on the women’s side. Maria Sharapova, fresh off her French Open win, is the favorite at +231, while Serena Williams, who was pushed hard in her third round match against Jie Zheng, is the second fave at +322.

Last year’s Wimbledon winner Petra Kvitova is player with the next shortest odds to win at +500. There is a large cluster of ladies priced between 10/1 and 60/1 to win Wimbledon.

Here’s a quick look at the big-name players and their odds to win heading into Monday’s action:
