Novak Djokovic can join Rafael Nadal atop the list of career grand slam winners when he squares off against Stefanos Tsitsipas in the 2023 Australian Open men's final on Sunday at Rod Laver Arena in Melbourne. The 35-year-old Djokovic has 21 major titles, one shy of the record held by Nadal. Djokovic also owns a record nine Australian Open titles. To win grand slam title No. 22 and Australian Open title No. 10, he must get by Tsitsipas, who is playing in just his second grand slam final.
The match is set to begin at 3:30 a.m. ET. Djokovic is a -525 favorite (risk $525 to win $100) in the latest Djokovic vs. Tsitsipas odds from Caesars Sportsbook, while Tsitsipas is a +350 underdog. The over/under for total games is 36.5.
Before you make any Australian Open men's final picks or Tsitsipas vs. Djokovic predictions, you must see the Australian Open 2023 picks from tennis handicapper Jose Onorato.
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 96-67-7 -- up 60.42 units -- in 2022!
Onorato knows that the storyline entering the Australian Open was Djokovic returning to Melbourne. He famously was not allowed to play last year and was deported out of the country for not being vaccinated against COVID-19. Djokovic had won the previous three Australian Open titles.
So far in Melbourne he has been dominant. He has dropped only one set in six matches, and that was in a tiebreak. Over his last three matches he has lost just 20 games combined. He has won 27 straight matches at the Australian Open, the second longest streak in tournament history.
Now, Onorato has scrutinized the Djokovic vs. Tsitsipas matchup in the men's final of the 2023 Australian Open and released his pick. We can tell you that he is picking Under 36.5 games, but he has another wager that pays plus-money. You ABSOLUTELY need to see what it is before locking in any 2023 Australian Open picks of your own!
