Very nice draw for Osaka..nobody in her vicinity who can beat her...of course, there is really nobody in the entire draw here who would be favoured against Osaka...

[ponchi101]

If we were talking Osaka before the break, sure. But Naomi has proven that coming back from giving birth is a really physical task.
Anisimova, on a relatively good day, can take her out.

Mertens is also out and has been replaced by Burrage.

[ashkor87]

Parks beat Anisimova ..i love both of them so not happy with this draw

[ashkor87]

Watching the highlights..court looks too quick for AA,and Alycia's serve is awesome...

[ashkor87]

If we were talking Osaka before the break, sure. But Naomi has proven that coming back from giving birth is a really physical task.
Anisimova, on a relatively good day, can take her out.

Parks took out Anisimova already!

[ponchi101]

Yes. I wonder if anybody in this forum ever talks about the parity in the tour...
