There are only eight snooker players left with a chance of winning the 2022 Scottish Open this weekend. Ronnie O’Sullivan is already out after a surprising defeat. Just like the defending champion, Luca Brecel. But we can find Judd Trump, Neil Robertson, and Mark Selby in the quarter-finals who are the top favorites according to the 2022 Scottish Open winner odds. 

The sixth ranking event of the 2022/23 season, the 2022 Scottish Open has already produced some unexpected results. After the world-ranking leader Ronnie O’Sullivan was knocked out in the last 32 by Gary Wilson. Just like last year’s runner-up, John Higgins. The defending champion, Belgian Luca Brecel finished even earlier, after losing against Fraser Patrick in the first round. But the top-form player of the new season, Mark Allen has also finished this tournament. The winner of the first tournament of the Home Nations Series, the 2022 Northern Ireland Open was beaten by Thepchaiya Un-Nooh in the last 32. But snooker fans can still see some of the best players in the competition, led by the world No2 Judd Trump. 

The 2022 Scottish Open Winner Odds Favor Trump and Robertson

Judd Trump reached the quarter-finals of the 2022 Scottish Open after beating Chinese Xiao Guodong in the last 16. But the English world No2 was very critical of his own performance as he had to come back from two frames down. Now the 23-time event winner will meet Thepchaiya Un-Nooh in the quarter-finals. The Thai player knocked out the 2018 winner, Mark Allen in the previous rounds. Online sportsbooks in the UK still favor Trump to win the match with an odds of 1.28. And they offer the smallest odds, 3.40 for his tournament victory. It would be Trump’s first Scottish Open title after reaching the semi-finals on three occasions before.  And also his first win in the new season following his runner-up finish in the Champion of Champions event last month. 

We can find the same odds next to Neil Roberston in the 2022 Scottish Open winner odds. The world No4 missed the first few events in the 2022/23 season. But he won the 2022 World Mixed Doubles tournament in September. He also got to the semi-finals in the Hong Kong Masters and the Northern Ireland Open. The Australian player has been very confident in this tournament so far. But he will face a tough opponent in the quarter-final, Mark Selby. Robertson has a good record against Selby but he needs to play his best to beat him again. The English world No3 didn’t win easily against Jack Lisowski in the previous round, but can still fight for his third Scottish Open title. Selby’s odds to get it are 6.00. While his odds to beat Robertson are 2.30. 

Can Kyren Wilson or someone else win?

30-year-old English player, Kyren Wilson can win his first Scottish Open title this weekend after reaching the quarter-final for the second time in his career. The winner of the 2022 European Masters will meet Gary Wilson on Friday. The player who knocked out Ronnie O’Sullivan in the last 32. It promises to be an exciting game with Kyren being the favorite. The world No8 has much more experience in such situations than his opponent who has never won any tournament yet. Gary Wilson did reach the final of the 2021 British Open though and might continue his great run in Edinburgh now. His odds to win his first-ever title are 21.00. 

Online gambling sites in the UK offer an odds of 11.00 for the victory of Ricky Walden, who will meet Joe O’Connor in another quarter-final. The world No21 reached this stage twice before. But he has a good chance of going further this time. In spite of the great form of O’Connor who has knocked out such strong players as Ding Junhui and Mark Williams so far. The overall victory of the young English player would be a huge surprise though. And has an odds of 29.00 on bet365. Similar odds are offered for the victory of the Thai player, Thepchaiya Un-Nooh who will play against Trump. The world No57 has one ranking title so far but hasn’t come close to another win in recent years. Un-Nooh can’t be underestimated though after he knocked out Mark Allen in the last 32.
