Predicted for 13. September 2026
·
Based on: Statistical Pattern
Sabalenka enters as two-time defending US Open champion and clear favourite. Kalshi prices her at 24%, Caesars Sportsbook at +275 (implying ~27%). Her 2026 hard-court season is exceptional: 27 wins, 3 losses (90% win rate), three titles — no rival comes close. We set slightly above market at 30%, as her dominance on the surface is historically singular and rivals (Swiatek seeded No. 8, Gauff No. 4) have so far not matched her hard-court consistency. Consistent with open predictions for Swiatek/Gauff/Rybakina quarter-finals and Pegula/Andreeva semi-finals.
Data basis for this prediction
- Kalshi US Open Women's Winner: Sabalenka 24% (Stand 28.08.2026, deadspin.com/prediction-markets)
- Caesars Sportsbook: Sabalenka +275 (~27%), Stand 26.08.2026 (cbssports.com/2026-us-open-odds)
- Sabalenka 2026 Hard Court Record: 27-3, 3 Titel – höchste Hardcourt-Win-Rate im Feld (covers.com)
- US Open 2026 Hauptdraw: ab 30. August 2026, Finale 13. September (olympics.com/en/news/us-open-2026)
Verdict: Miss
Aryna Sabalenka hat das Finale nicht gewonnen. Elena Rybakina (KAZ) besiegte Sabalenka im Endspiel mit 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 und gewann damit ihren ersten US-Open-Titel. Sabalenka erreichte zwar das Finale (was die Vorhersage über ihre Dominanz teilweise stützt), scheiterte aber an Rybakina – genau der Konkurrentin, die in der Prognose-Begründung nicht als Hauptgefahr eingestuft wurde.

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.

Bookmaker odds imply ~38% win probability for Max Verstappen (moneyline +160). He won the São Paulo GP today and holds the Las Vegas track record from 2025, where he dominated by ~20 seconds. Since Kimi Antonelli (Mercedes) already secured the 2026 World Championship in Mexico, the remaining battle is for 2nd in the standings between Verstappen, Russell, Hamilton and Leclerc (within ~9 points). Verstappen is highly motivated to collect wins. Competition: George Russell +400, Kimi Antonelli +700, Lewis Hamilton +2800. The night race on the Las Vegas Strip historically favors Red Bull and Verstappen's driving style.
