After Jannik Sinner's withdrawal on 21 August 2026 (knee), Zverev is the second-highest favourite on Polymarket with ~24.5% win probability behind Alcaraz (~36%). Reaching the semi-final typically implies 2–2.5× the win probability, i.e. ~50–55%. Zverev is an established hard-court finalist (US Open 2020). The open draw half following Sinner's absence eases the path. Polymarket prices Zverev to win the tournament at ~24.5%.

Mercedes-AMG Petronas F1 Team clinches the 2026 Formula 1 Constructors' Championship at the Las Vegas Grand Prix (November 21–22, 2026)

Mercedes leads the constructors' standings with 630 points over Ferrari (504) by a 126-point margin (as of Nov 8, 2026; source: grandepremio.com / skysports.com). According to grandepremio.com, the Las Vegas GP (Nov 20–22) is the earliest possible race for a mathematical title decision: a lead of ≥86 points after the race would clinch the constructors' title early. With four remaining races (Brazil, Las Vegas, Qatar, Abu Dhabi) and this cushion, even a mediocre Las Vegas result suffices. Bookmaker odds imply >85% for Mercedes' 2026 constructors' title. Verification by FIA or Formula1.com by November 22, 2026.
