Daniil Medvedev to win @ 4/6 (1.67)
A case can be made for Jannik Sinner to win this tournament. The Italian player has taken out some tough opponents in this tournament, and he did so without surrendering a set. As a matter of fact, Sinner defeated Andrey Rublev, Frances Tiafoe, Lorenzo Sonego and Ben Shelton in the previous rounds of this competition, all in straight sets.

Furthermore, Daniil Medvedev has been one of the most consistent players on the tour in recent months; he has 15 wins in his last 18 matches, reaching three finals in that stretch. All things considered, we are leaning towards Medvedev for the victory.
