Aryna Sabalenka, Garbine Muguruza, Bianca Andreescu are the top 3 favorites to win the WTA 1000 that is about to be staged in Montreal.
The event will miss the top 2 players in the world after Ashleigh Barty and Naomi Osaka decided not to compete. Therefore, Aryna Sabalenka will lead the main draw, followed by Bianca Andreescu, the defending champion. Nevertheless, the favorite number 2 according to bet365 will be Garbine Muguruza, not Andreescu. It’s worth noticing that upcoming American player Coco Gauff is considered the favorite number 9 despite being the seed number 15 in Canada.
These are the latest odds:
Aryna Sabalenka 6.50
Garbine Muguruza 9.50
Bianca Andreescu 12.00
Simona Halep 13.00
Karolina Pliskova 15.00
