French Open 2026 each-way value picks: at the semi-final stage, with four players left in each draw, each-way value is all about who reaches the final at a price. The favourites — Mirra Andreeva and Alexander Zverev — are short, so the value sits with the challengers behind them. Our semi-final each-way picks below. See also our men’s outright tips, women’s outright tips and semi-finals preview.
What Counts as “Each-Way Value” at the Semi-Final Stage?
With only four players left per draw, most books settle each-way on the player to reach the final (1/2 the odds). The value is no longer in 20/1 outsiders. It is in the second-favourites and live underdogs whose to-reach-the-final price still offers an edge over the short favourites.
Pick 1: Marta Kostyuk — each-way (women’s)
Marta Kostyuk has beaten Świątek and Svitolina back-to-back and meets Andreeva in a Madrid-final rematch. The form is real and the to-reach-the-final price is the value play at the top of the women’s market.
Pick 2: Diana Shnaider — each-way (women’s)
Diana Shnaider stunned world No.1 Sabalenka and now faces a qualifier for a place in the final. One of the form players left, and live at a fair each-way price.
Pick 3: Flavio Cobolli — each-way (men’s)
Flavio Cobolli reached a maiden major semi by beating Auger-Aliassime and faces compatriot Arnaldi — a winnable all-Italian semi with a final place on the line. The men’s each-way value pick.
Pick 4: Jakub Menšík — each-way (men’s)
Jakub Menšík has the serve and ball-striking to trouble Zverev and has already beaten de Minaur, Rublev and Fonseca. A live each-way outsider to reach the final.
Long Shot: Maja Chwalińska (Q)
World No.114 Maja Chwalińska is one win from the most improbable final of all. A small-stakes each-way flier on the fairytale.

French Open 2026 Each-Way Value Picks FAQs
What does "each-way" mean in tennis betting?
An each-way bet is two equal-stake bets: one on the player to win, one to “place”. At a Grand Slam, “place” typically means reach the final (2 places) or semi-final (4 places, depending on bookmaker). The place portion settles at a fraction of the odds (usually 1/2).
Who is the men's each-way pick for French Open 2026?
Flavio Cobolli, into a maiden Grand Slam semi-final against compatriot Matteo Arnaldi — a winnable all-Italian last-four with a final place at stake.
When are the French Open 2026 finals?
The women’s final is Saturday 6 June and the men’s final Sunday 7 June 2026 at Stade Roland-Garros.
