Only matches worth watching are Rune- Berrettini and Anisimova- Raducanu..I expect Amanda A to win that one...Ryba continues to have an easy ride, though Jovic is a very good young player

If the court is truly fast, which I don't expect, Raducanu has the edge, if it is slower, say medium to fast, AA will have the edge.i do think the court and conditions generally, are not really fast, so it will be Anisimova..it is a good test. For some reason, Anisimova seems to need a fraction of a second more to hit her shots.

Tignor picked Jovic to beat Rybakina in his three to watch.

He has fared well so far in his predictions, but that's a heat check.

That's a wild pick, but I've not seen Jovic play...

I haven't seen her yet either, but I think she did make the 3rd round of the US Open last year.

I watched both of them in their first round matches, and Anisimova looks like she is playing cleaner than Raducanu. Since both players' form fluctuates so wildly, though, it's tough to say which version will show up on court.

Anisimova needs time on her forehand, takes a big swing, and the continental grip doesn't help ..hér backhand is perfect though.
She doesn't move as well as. Raducanu either

Both Raducanu and AA are finding it hard to hold serve...I don't think the court is as fast as last year..server doesn't have much advantage

Anisimova not willing to come forward, missing several putaways

Raducanu has called for the trainer ..her serving looked off in the last game. Maybe back bothering her,?

I expected Anisimova to play aggressively against Raducanu who took one of her traditional MTO's down 0-3 but it's Raducanu who is up 6-3, 5-4 with Anisimova serving to stay in it.

Anisimova is listless.

When she lost the 3-0 advantage Anisimova was done. I hate to say she looked disinterested so maybe she was having a bad day.

Iga up next for Raducanu.
