Bet on Carlos Alcaraz Garfia vs Adam Walton on Tennis

Carlos Alcaraz Garfia is heavily favored to win against Adam Walton with odds around 1.15, due to his world-class ranking, recent Grand Slam dominance including multiple titles, and strong hard court form with 8 wins in his last 10 matches leading into the Australian Open. Walton, a qualifier, has shown promise but lacks the experience against top-10 players, winning only 2 of his last 5 against higher seeds with DexWin - Best Odds on Your Favourite Sports.

The match starts on January 18, 2026, at 12:00 AM local time (AEDT, UTC+11) at the Australian Open in Melbourne, corresponding to 1:00 PM UTC on January 17.

The match is at Melbourne Park in Melbourne, Australia, specifically on one of the outer courts or Rod Laver Arena depending on scheduling, with the main stadium holding 15,000 spectators and known for its state-of-the-art blue hard courts optimized for Grand Slam play.

Prediction favors Carlos Alcaraz Garfia to win in straight sets with moneyline odds of 1.15 on DexWin, supported by his 92% win rate on hard courts over the past year and Walton's vulnerability in high-pressure scenarios, where Alcaraz's superior serve and baseline game should dominate.

This is their first head-to-head meeting, with no prior matches; Alcaraz holds a perfect record in Australian Open opening rounds (5-0 in recent years), while Walton is making his main draw debut after strong qualifying wins averaging 2.1 sets per match.
