Cori Gauff is just 16-year-old but she is already considered among the favorites to win the Australian Open. According to bet365, Naomi Osaka (9.00) and Serena Williams (9.00) are in pole position to win the first slam of the year.
However, behind them, there is an interesting group of players.
While Coco is not in the “first tier” of the Australian Open favorites, it is difficult not to notice that according to the renowned betting platform, her chances to conquer the title in Melbourne (21.00) are slightly less than the ones of some other top players such as Karolina Pliskova (17.00), Petra Kvitova (17.00) and Vika Azarenka (17.00), to name a few.
Last year, Coco Gauff upset the defending champion Naomi Osaka 6-3 6-4 in the 3rd round.
