Simmers (+500), Marks (+600), Best Bets To Knock Off Fierro

Caitlin Simmers of the United States has the next-shortest Olympic surfing betting (+500) as the No. 1 ranked surfer on the Women’s Championship Tour. However, she finished ninth at the Tahiti Pro despite having three wins on the Women’s Championship Tour this season.

Caroline Marks is the second-ranked surfer on the Women’s Championship Tour and has the better track record in Teahupo’o. Her +600 Summer Olympics betting odds are valuable considering she is the 2023 Tahiti Pro champion and finished third in this year’s event.
