2016 Olympics Betting Update PT 2

The American women look set to dominate the Women's Gymnastics division with emerging superstar Simone Biles looming as the significant favourite with a 4/11 price tag to win the Women's All Around while her listing for the balance beam is 8/13 and her Floor outrights are trading at a best price of about 4/6.

The Russians are the predictable favourites for the Rhythmic Group Outrights with a 2/5 price with Bulgaria bringing up the end for competition with a 4/1 listing. They are just ahead of Belarus at 9/2 and then the odds take a bit of a jump to the Israeli women at a listing of around 8/1 at the time of this writing.

One of the most hotly contested sections of the Olympics – and clearly one of the biggest betting volume events – is the Men's 100M dash and, as one would expect, world superstar Usain Bolt of Jamaica is the betting favourite right now to secure another Olympic title. However it should be noted that the bookmakers are not favouring him to beat any type of World Record this year since they have priced that rather high.

As it currently stands, punters will find Usain Bolt available at an 8/13 margin right now to take the Men's 100m with American Justin Gatlin looming as the second choice right now with a price of about 9/4 – which indicates that the bookmakers and the punters alike are taking the American contender seriously.

The odds take a considerable jump to Yohan Blake and Trayvon Bromell at 16/1 for another contender to dispose of the two two in the Men's 100M. The bookmakers have instituted a Betting W/O Bolt & Gatlin market and you'll find Bromell available at a 6/4 listing while Yohan Blake can be backed at a 9/4 margin right now. Andre De Grasse trades at 6/1 there while Jimmy Vicaut can be backed at around 8/1.

For those actually looking to back a new World Record in Brazil this year for the 2016 Olympic Games – you are looking at a hefty 9/1 margin right now for that to happen.
