2023 USOSP Women's Picks and Results Thread

[JTContinental]

CAUTION: As TMQ is self-epmployed, he does not do 8 am PST so it may be a couple of hours before you see your picks here.

Welcome all to the 2023 USOSP! TMQ will be here to guide you through your journey from hopeful ingenue to tired showgirl, not with gentle platitudes, but with gentle snark reminding you to keep your chin up despite your penchant for poor choices. Remember, when you're red, you're dead, but until then, enjoy the atmosphere!

[G2gaynor]

So there's 56 people that are living pretty dangerously on the first day.

[JTContinental]

Mertens pickers are through

TMQ is watching Mirra Andreeva and she has no gameplan beyond trying to blast Gadecki off the court, which is not working at all.

[jazzyg]

Mertens saved three match points at 4-5, 0-40 in the third set.

[JTContinental]

I stopped watching because the match was so bad, but Andreeva was able to pull it out.

[JTContinental]

Fairly low casualty list for day 1

[nelslus]

I watched some of Bouzkova kind sneak out a 5 & 4 win over Krueger. Not exactly an inspirational performance from Bouzkova. And, if Krueger had just cut down on a few of her unforced errors....

Nevertheless- today's fellow Bouzkova pickers- you are welcome.

[JTContinental]

After 7 no picks and 1 zombie are discounted, we still have 150 players for day 2

Marie Bouzkova 20
Rebecca Marino 19
Karolina Pliskova 16
Sofia Kenin 9
Elina Svitolina 9

[nelslus]

19 Rebecca pickers can now proceed to the Loser's Lounge....

[JTContinental]

Honestly, they could have strolled right on over there after making their pick

[ptmcmahon]

She was a pretty big betting favorite actually - although I never would have done it
