Roger Federer's decision to skip the French Open has given a Vegas boost to the likes of Novak Djokovic, Rafael Nadal, and Andy Murray. The trio are now listed at 4-1, 10-13, and 7-1, respectively, to capture the men's title at Roland Garros, according to the Westgate Las Vegas SuperBook.

Federer officially withdrew from Paris on Monday, saying he'll skip clay courts this summer in order to preserve himself for other majors such as Wimbledon and the U.S. Open.

The 35-year-old won one French Open title in 2009, but has been runner-up to Nadal on the clay courts four other times. The tournament begins May 22.
