Drake is once again making headlines, betting $300,000 on current world No. 1 tennis player Jannik Sinner to win the 2025 US Open, with the chance to make $507,000.
Drake shared the news on social media, adding another story to his massive sports bet. While he has had some success, fans often joke that the athletes or teams he supports eventually end up losing. Back in June, Drake lost $8M to gambling and later announced the end of his gambling streams.
Drake Curse
The curse has followed him for years. At last year’s US Open, Drake lost $210,000 after betting on American Taylor Fritz to upset Sinner in the final. But the rapper bounced back at the Australian Open in January, winning $345,000 after correctly picking Sinner to win the championship. Overall, he’s still down about $115,000 on tennis bets.
However, Sinner is in strong form. The 24-year-old athlete competes with fellow Italian Lorenzo Musetti in the quarterfinals. Oddsmakers list Sinner as a heavy -2000 favorite in that match. According to ESPN BET, Sinner is currently the top pick to win the US Open at -130 odds. His biggest threat is Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz with +145.
