2024 French Open women’s semifinal odds, predictions: Iga Swiatek vs. Coco Gauff picks, bets by tennis expert

No. 1 ranked Iga Swiatek will look to continue her hot streak as she takes aim for another French Open title when she battles third-ranked Cori “Coco” Gauff on Thursday at Roland Garros in Paris, France. Swiatek reached the semifinals with a 6-0, 6-2 win over Marketa Vondrousova, while Gauff advanced with a 4-6, 6-2, 6-3 win over Ons Jabeur. Swiatek, who is eyeing her third French Open championship in a row and fourth in five years, is riding a 17-match winning streak. Gauff, who won the U.S. Open in September and reached the Australian Open semifinals in January, has won five matches in a row since losing to Swiatek in the semifinals at Rome last month.

SportsLine consensus odds lists Swiatek as the -900 favorite on the money line, while Gauff is at +500. Since 2019, Swiatek has reached the fourth round or better at the French Open every year, including the quarterfinals once and the finals three times. Before you bet on the 2024 French Open semifinal, you need to see what proven SportsLine tennis handicapper Jose Onorato has to say

Onorato grew up playing competitive tennis in Caracas, Venezuela. After coming to the U.S., he trained with famed coach Nick Bollettieri at IMG Academy in Florida and faced players like Robert Farah, now one of the world’s top-ranked doubles players.

Onorato, who holds dual degrees in finance and economics from the University of Miami, does extensive research before placing any tennis bets. He studies current form, players’ tendencies on a particular surface, weather conditions and many other relevant factors. That systematic approach helped Onorato go 160-104-8 +97.32U – since 2022.

Now, Onorato has released his picks for the 2024 French Open. You can head to SportsLine now to see them
