Despite not been guaranteed a place in the main draw in Paris, Maria Sharapova is challenging Simona Halep – whom she beat in the final in 2014 -for favouritism for next month’s French Open. The pair are both 7/1 with Boylesports in betting that is wide-open after the news that Serena Williams will not play again until she’s given birth.

Sharapova only returned to action in Stuttgart last month after 15-month doping ban. She will need wild cards to make the French Open, Wimbledon and the US Open while she builds up her world ranking. The Russian is currently 262 in the WTA rankings after reaching the semi-finals in Stuttgart without dropping a set. Given her record at Roland Garros, she would be a very real threat to the world’s current top 10 if given an invite to Paris as the cobwebs should have been well and truly shaken off by the time the year’s second Grand Slam gets under way.
It’s no surprise that defending champion Garbine Muguruza is also prominent in the betting (a general 8/1) while Britain’s Johanna Konta is only 25/1 with Boylesports even though she’s never got past the first round.
