For the record, it was just two days ago that we asked you if anyone could defeat Jannik Sinner at the 2026 French Open. And 82% of the voters chose Sinner over the remaining field. Sure enough, Sinner is done - suffering a shocking second-round defeat to Juan Manuel Cerundolo. Sinner had been cruising and was one game away from a straight-sets victory, but he was clearly having physical issues and ended up losing in five sets.

With Carlos Alcaraz sitting out this tournament with an injury, Sinner had been an overwhelming favorite to win. Now the field is wide open. The slight favorite is Alexander Zverev, who is the No. 2 seed at Roland Garros, trying to capture his first major. Ben Shelton is currently tied for seventh-best odds at +1800 - can Shelton be the first American to win the French Open since Andre Agassi in 1999?

But all eyes are on 39-year-old Novak Djokovic, who already owns the men's record with 24 majors. Djokovic currently has the second-best odds behind Zverev. So...
