Caeleb Dressel Swimming 2024 Olympics Odds
One of the most decorated male athletes in contemporary Olympic history will take to the pool in Paris this summer. Seven-time Olympic gold medalist Caeleb Dressel takes on the world at the 2024 Paris Games after securing five medals in Tokyo three years ago.
BetVirginia.com, as part of our Virginia sports betting coverage, broke down the odds on Dresselās two individual Olympic races this summer. The American ranks near the top in both as the 2024 Summer Games approach.
The Florida native won gold in three individual races at the last Summer Games, winning the 50- and 100-meter freestyle and the 100-meter butterfly. He also took home two team golds in the 4x100-meter freestyle and medley races, giving him consecutive golds in both events (repeating Team USAās feat from the 2016 Rio Games).

This year, Dressel will compete in the 100-meter butterfly, as well as the 50-meter freestyle as he looks to build on his already impressive record in the Olympics, perhaps drawing ever closer to Michael Phelpsā all-time mark of 23 career Olympic gold medals.
DraftKings Sportsbook lists Dressel as the favorite at +200 in the 100-meter butterfly, just ahead of Canadian Josh Liendo (+300> These odds have shifted lately; just a week earlier, the two were co-favorites at +250 odds. Swiss athlete Noe Ponti and Australian star Matthew Temple are at +400 apiece, while Frenchman Maxime Grousset is the next closest at +450, showing how tight of a race this is expected to be.
Team USA is a -500 favorite at Caesars Virginia Sportsbook to win the most golds across all sports. China is second at +375.
50M Freestyle (Menās) Odds
| Swimmer (country) | Odds |
| Cameron McEvoy (AUS) | +100 |
| Caeleb Dressel (USA) | +200 |
| Benjamin Proud (GBR) | +400 |
| Vladyslav Bukhov (UKR) | +800 |
| Florent Manaudou (FRA) | +1000 |
| Josh Liendo (CAN) | +1000 |
According to the DraftKings Virginia sportsbook app, Dressel (+200) is the No. 2 pick in the 50-meter freestyle, behind Cameron McEvoy of Australia, who is the favorite at +100 odds. Those two are ahead of British swimmer Benjamin Proud (+400), Ukrainian Vladyslav Bukhov (+800) and two swimmers at +1000, Liendo and Franceās Florent Manaudou.
Regardless of how Dressel winds up performing in Paris, heāll have a shot at starring at the worldās top tier sporting event, taking part in the revelry and pageantry of the Summer Olympics.
