The 2026 Australian Open has seen the best players on both the men's and women's sides of the game come together to fight for the first Grand Slam crown available.

With the chance to begin the new year in perfect style, each player has gone all out to win the tournament. With only a handful of matches between now and the trophy ceremonies, who will secure the silverware?

Jannik Sinner arrived for the 2026 Australian Open as the favourite to secure the title. He was not to be denied in 2025 as he hammered Alexander Zverev 6-3 7-6 6-3 in the final last year.

Sinner has been in scintillating form across the tournament and is the favourite ahead of the semi-finals. Sinner takes on Novak Djokovic, who is still on course to add yet another Slam crown to his trophy cabinet. In the other semi-final, second in the betting Carlos Alcaraz takes on underdog Alexander Zverev.

Women's Australian Open Winner	Odds
Aryna Sabalenka	1.61
Elena Rybakina	2.37

The Women's Australian Open has been another stunning example of just how unpredictable the women's game can be.

Aryna Sabalenka was fancied to go all the way this year, but the identity of her opponent was always up for debate.

Iga Swiatek looked on course to take on Sabalenka in the final, but she was stunned by Elena Rybakina in the quarter-finals. Rybakina has continued her brilliant run and is now a single win away from securing the trophy.

While Sabalenka is the favourite, nothing can be taken for granted at a tournament that has once again lived up to the hype.
