Kyrgios’ best run at a major in the singles event was making the 2021 Wimbledon final, losing to Novak Djokovic in straight sets. But he will return to the scene of his greatest triumph, winning the doubles tournament at Melbourne Park with fellow Aussie Thanasi Kokkinakis in 2022.

Kyrgios at his best is a serious threat on the hard court and has beaten many of the top players throughout his career including Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer.

Skybet have him alongside breakout star Arthur Fils, top 20 regular Holger Rune and 2024 ATP tour finalist Casper Ruud in the market. But it will be Jannik Sinner 6/4 and Carlos Alcaraz 9/4 who will be the biggest threats to a fairytale comeback for the Australian.

Jack Draper is in at 33/1 with his run to the semi-finals at the 2024 US Open a glimpse into the future for the talented Brit. While Taylor Fritz had a great end to his 2024 season joins him at 33s.
