I agree with suliso about Sabalenka. In addition to feeling the pressure of defending her title, she really has not been at peak form for about nine months. She won a lot of matches after the early part of 2023 without playing as well as she did to take Melbourne.

Does anyone know where to find a printable draw that's actually formatted correctly? It appears that on the ones from the official Australian Open site, the top half of each draw doesn't actually fit on one page, but the bottom four or so players spill onto another sheet.

This is from the WTA website (I know, I know). How does this work?

Samsonova vs Anisimova - is Samsonova capable of adapting to this fast court? Is anisimova really back? She doesn't like fast courts either...I don't know what to expect ..

Yes, that one's great. Thank you! But I don't see an option to get a PDF of a draw on the ATP site.

Look man you want everything?! You're a tennis fan. You should know better. :roll:

Seriously though really? That's not good. I was frankly surprised to see one on the WTA site.

Naomi didn’t bring her daughter to Australia. She could be away for 4-5 weeks. Says Shai might learn to crawl before she gets back. I’m surprised she is apart from her baby for that long. No judgment but surprising.

The major tournaments' websites always used to have good printable draws (in landscape mode) until a few years ago. Why would they stop providing those?

The good draws were from IBM. The slams that stopped using IBM have run into trouble at times with printable draws.

The grandmothers will handle the load. I doubt Cordae will do jack.

Kenin is no match for Swiatek - her form is no where near what it was several years ago. Neither is Kerber. Granted, they are former slam champions, but neither one should be much of a threat to Swiatek. That is like saying Sloane is a threat - maybe for one match against a lesser player.
It seems like time is going backwards towards 1984 . . . :freaking:
