Well I am not going to write off Iga at all, she is too good a player on the clay, she might not have won any of the big WTA1000 clay tournaments leading into RG this year, she had to withdraw from Madrid, due to illness but she made the SFs at Rome, beaten by Svitolina
Sabalenka I am not going to write her off, she hasnt won a title in RG I know she wants this title, even though Gauff hasnt been playing that well, Coco has the ability to win on clay, a great defense player and also with her athletic ability.If Muchova can stay healthy she is my dark horse, she has the most variety of any player on the tour and she has been in the final of RG before defeated by Iga.

My money is on Saba, but would like to see Svitolina lift the trophy. Don't want Iga to win and I hope she won't. I like Coco too, but right now she doesn't seem to be in top form.

Coco isnt in top form granted, though she knows how to win at RG, can improve with matches,
I think Elina is a favorite people would like to see her win, especially after she won Rome, usually I always give the player that wins Rome in both the womens and mens, one of the favorites to win RG

Prizmic in control right now with 2 sets up lead. He is playing with a lot of confidence recently and having some kind of a breakthrough moment. This is still far from over.

I am watching the match Don, Prizmic has been playing at such a high level so far hasnt faced a BP and is playing with controlled aggression

Oh No!
Hailey Baptiste stayed down on the ground after landing very badly on her left foot.Paramedics on court. She stood up on her own power but looks like she will be wheeled off court
Bad luck for Hailey has she was playing the best tennis, she also had to retire from RG 2022 due to an ankle issue
I hope it isnt too serious

Cant expect to have 71 UFE on any surface especially clay and expect to win, she had a shocker

This really opens up this half of the draw for a lot of players

Another top seed Andreeva in a bit of trouble loses the 1st set to Ribera 63
Jazz gone in 3 sets to Sierra 36 64 63, I wasnt surprised at her loss, came into RG under a injury cloud with her ankle, and really her level this year has been sub par
