Based on: Historical Cycle
Aryna Sabalenka (No. 1) faces Linda Noskova (No. 6) in the semi-final; on the other side are Mirra Andreeva (No. 5) and Coco Gauff (No. 4). Kalshi prices Sabalenka at approximately 23–24% for the tournament title (as of September 7, 2026, with >$9M volume on Polymarket). Conditional on her already-secured semi-final berth and a favourable SF draw vs Noskova, the implied final-win probability rises to approximately 50%. Sabalenka is a two-time US Open champion (2023, 2024) and historically at her strongest in New York. Against either Andreeva or Gauff in the final she holds a positive head-to-head record. Existing open forecasts cover only individual matches — the title itself is uncovered.
Data basis for this prediction
- Kalshi 'Women's US Open Winner': Sabalenka ~24 % (Stand 7. September 2026)
- Polymarket Women's US Open Winner: Vol. >9,17 Mio. USD (Stand 5. September 2026)
- US Open 2026 SF-Lineup: Sabalenka vs. Noskova / Andreeva vs. Gauff (Wikipedia Draw, 8. September 2026)

Verdict: Miss
Sabalenka hat das US-Open-2026-Damen-Finale verloren. Elena Rybakina besiegte sie am 12. September 2026 mit 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 und gewann damit ihren ersten US-Open-Titel (ihren dritten Grand-Slam-Titel insgesamt). Rybakina hatte kurz zuvor zudem die Weltranglisten-Nr.-1 von Sabalenka übernommen. Die Vorhersage scheiterte daran, dass Sabalenka im Finale auf eine in Topform befindliche Rybakina traf, nicht auf Andreeva oder Gauff.

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.

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.
