There is an interesting match in the tennis world this week—current world number one Swiatek against Kiryios. On the surface, it looks a bit lopsided. But looking at the data from the crypto prediction market Polymarket makes it quite interesting.

Swiatek's odds are close to 7x returns, while Kiryios has only a meager 1.2x. The market's expectations are clear.

From the data perspective, Swiatek is indeed the absolute favorite:
- Currently ranked number one in the world
- Four Grand Slam titles
- In peak physical condition

But the 1.2x odds indicate that there are also many bets on Kiryios. What signals does this reflect? Sometimes, market sentiment itself is the best story. The data is there; who the real winner is will be known after the match.

Daring to bet 1.2x on Kyrgios? What is the market hinting at? Is another upset coming?

1.2x? Kyrgios can't be that underestimated, unless there's some insider info I haven't seen... --- The data on Polymarket is indeed interesting; it feels like the market is hinting at something --- Wait, a 7x return? Is Sabalenka really that solid? I'm thinking about betting on Kyrgios --- This is the charm of crypto prediction markets; on-chain data never lies, and you can read human nature just by looking at the odds --- Only someone crazy or someone who knows something we don't would bet on Kyrgios at 1.2x --- Sabalenka, ranked first with four Grand Slams, is indeed unbeatable, but these odds are a bit exaggerated --- Market sentiment is more accurate than data; looks like I need to start checking Polymarket --- The probability of Kyrgios crashing is higher than 1.2x; these odds are making me consider a reverse bet

7x odds for Gileos... What is the market hinting at? That's quite interesting.

1.2x odds, indeed some people are optimistic about Kyrgios, the market isn't that bearish on him --- Sabalenka 7x vs Kyrgios 1.2x, this gap says it all --- Interesting, Polymarket's data is much more reliable than media predictions, money doesn't lie --- Wait, 1.2x and so many people betting on Kyrgios? I don't understand the logic at all --- Honestly, market sentiment tells us more than rankings, just see who gets proven wrong --- Sabalenka is too steady, no one wants to buy, Kyrgios becomes the dark horse bet? That's interesting --- 7x vs 1.2x, what are crypto bros telling us, the answer will be clear when the game starts --- Data dominates, yet the odds are so close, does anyone really believe Kyrgios can turn the tide --- That's why you should look at on-chain data instead of listening to analysts chatter, the flow of money is the most honest

1.2x odds are a bit interesting, it seems KiriOS fans really dare to go all in Polymarket's prediction markets are the true reflection of public opinion, much more honest than traditional media I bet five bucks on an upset, tennis is just about not being afraid of anything Sabalenka 7x... it’s more likely that people are not very optimistic about KiriOS Wait, how has KiriOS been doing lately? Feels like there’s some trick with these odds Market sentiment is always right, I’ll try to go against the market this time 1.2x? Does anyone really believe KiriOS can win? Brave Honestly, crypto prediction markets are much more transparent than traditional sports betting This match is a must-watch, the moment to decode the market secrets has arrived KiriOS fans are really hardcore haha
