Djokovic 2.30
Federer 8.00
Nadal 8.20
Zverev 9.50

Tempted to place a bet on Zverev, nice odds, I believe Federer is done physically, same for Nadal (will too rusty at least), while the favorite is Djokovic I think it's time for Zverev to step up and go far, maybe capitalize on an early crash for Nadal or Federer.

Zverev won the ATP finals while he was at odds 20 before the tournament, it's time to back him to win a slam.

Any constructive opinion welcome.

Zverev maybe young and athletic but Djokovic will still dominate him. Even with lower odds, it best to pick Djokovic to win the championship. Yet, if I'm going to bet play by play, I would bet for Federer coz he still has the talent even without the gas.
To be fair Roger Federer played fantastic today for his first match of the season (won 6-1, 6-1 to Cameron Norrie, it was an exhibition but players usually are serious when playing the Hopman Cup). But my concern still remains his fitness.

Novak Djokovic was great too in Abu Dabi, one thing is for sure, no way Roger Federer will win if he eventually bumps into Novak Djokovic. He will need to avoid it to win the title.
