A new madness for Drake. Known for betting very large sums on different sporting events, and very often to lose them, the Canadian rapper reiterated by betting a six -digit sum on tennis.
While the US Open is currently playing in New York, Drake published a screenshot on his Instagram account on Tuesday, on which we can see that he bet 300,000 dollars on the final victory of Jannik Sinner, currently number 1 in the world.
With this coast at 1.69, the interpreter of “Headlines” could win $ 507,000, or 435,000 euros, and thus make a profit of $ 207,000 (Editor’s note: around 177,000 euros).
Easy Kazakh winner Alexander Bublik in the round of 16, the world number one will face his compatriot Lorenzo Musetti on the night of Wednesday to Thursday for a place in the semi-finals. He could find the winner of the match between Alex de Minaur and Félix Auger-Aliassime there. If he wins his next two games, the Italian will find in the final the winner of the meeting between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic.
“Drake’s curse”
If he acts as a favorite to win the great New York home, the road remains long for Jannik Sinner all the more since Carlos Alcaraz has posted a sparkling form since the start of the tournament and that Novak Djokovic is looking for a 25th record title in Grand Chelem.
At 38, Drake is known to bet and lose regularly on various sporting events, so much so that the “Drake curse” has become a popular term in the world of bet.
According to Thedrakecurse.com site, which follows the rapper’s bets, Drake has lost $ 115,000 on tennis, but earned a lot of money thanks to many other sports betting, especially on the final of the 2022 Football World Cup opposing France to Argentina.
