We’re down to the final four on the men’s side of the Wimbledon bracket. Luckily for us, Head of Trading Kevin Lawler is a massive tennis fan and is here to offer his semifinal thoughts and picks.

Novak Djokovic (-550) vs. Jannik Sinner (+390)

ASK THE TRADER: “Really interesting match. Sinner was up 2-0 on Djokovic at the Wimbledon quarterfinals last year before losing in 5, and he’s improved since. Novak has been comfortable, but Sinner has the tools to push him all the way. I would bet the overs here, and bet Sinner + games and Sinner + sets.”

PICK: Set Betting — Djokovic 3-2 (+525)

Carlos Alcaraz (-260) vs. Daniil Medvedev (+205)

ASK THE TRADER: “Alcaraz will have too much here. Medvedev hasn’t looked too dangerous all tournament and Alcaraz has been incredible. He beat Matteo Berrettini easily and demolished Holger Rune in straights, while Medvedev was one tiebreak away from being dumped out to Chris Eubanks.”

PICK: Set Handicap — Alcaraz -1.5 (140)
