Tuesday's main tennis slate on DraftKings is an eight-match card with a $50,000 salary cap. Matches include Shevchenko @ Mannarino, Cerundolo @ Michelsen, Pegula @ Kostyuk and Noskova @ Gauff. The slate locks Tuesday, 11/10, at 7:00 a.m. ET (4:00 a.m. PT).
At the top, our model has Jessica Pegula and Coco Gauff tied for the highest projection on the board at 78.9, priced at $8,900 and $8,800. Alex Michelsen carries the biggest ceiling among the top plays at 103.2 and projects at 72.4 for $9,900. Tomas Martin Etcheverry projects at 74.4 for $8,400, though his ceiling of 80.1 is far lower than Michelsen's. Arthur Rinderknech is priced at $9,300 with a 72.0 projection and a 91.2 ceiling.
The value is on the cheap end. Juan Manuel Cerundolo costs $5,500 and projects at 72.4, the best rate on the slate at 13.2 points per $1,000. Marta Kostyuk at $6,500 projects at 78.9, matching the top projection on the board while costing well under Pegula. Linda Noskova offers the same 78.9 for $6,800, or 11.6 points per $1,000. Each of the three is projected to be owned by only 6% of the field.
The crowd is expected to gather in the mid-priced range. Gauff, Holger Rune and Etcheverry are the most popular plays at 25% projected ownership each. Michelsen, Pegula and Rinderknech sit at 22%, so there is no single runaway chalk play on this slate.
Our model's top lineup uses the full $50,000. It pairs Michelsen at $9,900 with Gauff at $8,800, Rune at $8,600, Halys at $8,200, Mannarino at $8,000 and Kostyuk at $6,500. That build leans on Michelsen's ceiling and Kostyuk's price-to-projection edge, while rostering two of the most popular names in Gauff and Rune.
Lock is Tuesday at 7:00 a.m. ET, so get your lineups set before then.
