2024 French Open women's semifinal odds, predictions: Iga Swiatek ...

Top-ranked Iga Swiatek will look to reach her third consecutive French Open Final as she battles third-ranked Cori "Coco" Gauff in the 2024 French Open semifinals on Thursday at Roland Garros in Paris, France. Swiatek defeated Gauff 6-4, 6-3 last month at Internazionali BNL d'Italia in Rome to move to 10-1 all-time against the American. Swiatek, 23, who is 43-4 this year, has won three of the last four French Open titles, including two in a row, and has four grand slam titles since turning pro in 2016. Gauff, 20, who is 30-8 in 2024, won the 2023 U.S. Open and reached the finals of the 2022 French Open.

SportsLine's consensus list Swiatek as the -900 favorite on the money line, while Gauff is a +500 underdog in the latest Swiatek vs. Gauff odds. Swiatek has 21 career singles titles and has been ranked No. 1 overall since November 2023. Gauff has seven career singles titles and has been ranked No. 3 overall since January. Before you bet on the 2024 French Open semifinal, you need to see what proven SportsLine tennis handicapper Jose Onorato has to say. 

Onorato grew up playing competitive tennis in Caracas, Venezuela. After coming to the U.S., he trained with famed coach Nick Bollettieri at IMG Academy in Florida and faced players like Robert Farah, now one of the world's top-ranked doubles players.

Onorato, who holds dual degrees in finance and economics from the University of Miami, does extensive research before placing any tennis bets. He studies current form, players' tendencies on a particular surface, weather conditions and many other relevant factors. That systematic approach helped Onorato go 160-104-8 +97.32U - since 2022.

Now, Onorato has released his picks for the 2024 French Open. You can head to SportsLine now to see them. 

Top 2024 French Open women's semifinals predictions

Onorato knows that Swiatek of Poland has been on a roll. After losing in the semifinals at Stuttgart in April, she has not lost since. She cruised to the Madrid championship in early May, playing three sets just twice  before dominating in Rome in mid-May. In that tournament, she did not play more than two sets in any match, including a 6-2, 6-3 win over Aryna Sabalenka of Belarus in the championship.

At the French Open, she is coming off a 6-0, 6-2 quarterfinal win over Marketa Vondrousova of the Czech Republic. The most trouble she has experienced came in the second round against Naomi Osaka of Japan. After outlasting Osaka 7-6 (1) in the first set, she fell flat, losing 6-1 in the second set. She rebounded for a hard-fought 7-5 win in the third set to advance.

Onorato also knows Gauff is more than capable of pulling off the upset. She has posted a 12-3 record on clay this year, and reached the semifinals of the Rome tournament, where she was beaten by Swiatek. Gauff has compiled a 205-90 (69.5%) career record, including a 59-24 (71.1%) mark on clay. She has had a lot of success at the French Open, reaching the quarterfinals twice and the finals once over the past three years. 

Gauff is coming off a quarterfinal win over Tunisia's Ons Jabeur on Tuesday, 4-6, 6-2, 6-3. She had a much easier time in the first four rounds. She opened with a 6-1, 6-1 triumph over Russia's Julia Avdeeva, before defeating Slovakia's Tamara Zidansek 6-3, 6-4 in the second round. The third round saw her defeat Ukraine's Dayana Yastremska 6-2, 6-4, before she rolled past Elisabetta Cocciaretto of Italy 6-1, 6-2. See who to pick here.
