Djokovic sees off Edmund, Pliskova suffers 2nd round exit, and van Gerwen is whipped by Wright – but how much could you’ve won? It’s the Daily Sports Spread Betting Roundup!

Who does Djokovic face in the US Open 3rd round?
Kyle Edmund got off to a dream start on Wednesday, beating the world no. 1 6-7 in their opening set. If you bought an Edmund to Win Set 1 binary spread of 9-15.4, that was a quick 84.6 times your initial stake.

From then on it was business as usual, with Novak winning the next 3 sets 6-3 6-4 6-2, maintaining his unbeaten record in 2020.

Still, the fact Edmund pushed him more than expected meant Total Sets rose to 4, against a starting tennis spread bet of 3.2-3.36 – that’s 0.64 times your opening bet.

Similarly, Total Games hit 40, against a starting price of 30-32, making you 8 times your original wager.

Even better, the Total Points market came in at 247. Buy at 189-196, and you netted yourself 51 times your initial bet.

Now Djokovic moves on the 3rd round, where he will face Jan-Lennard Struff.

Who is the highest seed left in the women’s singles US Open?
World no. 3, and top seed, Karolina Pliskova exited in straight sets at the hands of no. 50 Caroline Garcia on Wednesday.

The 6-1 7-6 defeat meant that selling a Pliskova/Garcia Match Supremacy spread of 8-11 made you 28 times your opening stake, as the market sees 10 points for the winner and a further 5 points for every set won by.

Sofia Kenin, ranked 4th in the world, is now the top seed left in the women’s side of the competition. However Kenin is only at an Outright Index spread of 8-10. Who is the favourite to win the women’s US Open? That’s Naomi Osaka, at 20.5-23.5, followed by Serena Williams at 16-19 – it’s worth noting, however, that Osaka is already through to the 3rd round while Williams is not.

Who is favourite to win the 2020 Premier League Darts?
In a shock result, Peter Wright hammered Michael van Gerwen 8-1 in Milton Keynes last night, moving ahead of the mighty Dutchman on leg difference.

Despite drawing against Michael Smith, Glen Durrant remains at the top of the table, and is already through to the play-offs. That puts him as favourite, at an Outright Index spread of 31.5-34.5, compared to Gary Anderson at 29.5-32.5. Former favourite van Gerwen, meanwhile, is now at just 26-29.
