We start the day with 21 players, after one NO PICK:

Pliskova 11
Raducanu 5
Rogers 3
Andreescu 1
Sakkari 1

A clear favorite is there, but it is by now a risky pick.
Good luck to all. Remember, as this is a new topic and JT is not in command, CHECK YOUR PICKS if you feel you are still alive. All corrections will be implemented.

Is that a typo in the title or clever TAT wordplay?

Though I’m not in command, at least 4 of you will bow to my wishes today.

You see why you should have never left me in charge?
My misspelling, and I will leave your post as it is for documentation.

what doesn't kill you makes you live on in misery and confusion

[Irena2]

I realized last night I'd have more choices if I picked against Pavlyuchenkova...so glad I changed my pick. I live another day in relief and confusion, but misery can wait until tomorrow!

[ponchi101]

After that re-enacting of GLADIATOR by Sakakri and Andreescu, we are left with 16 players still gunning for that trophy.
As today's matches start a bit later, I will update then. Have to go and pay bills, like always.

[ponchi101]

We start with 16 players.
The breakdown is:
Svitolina 8
Fernandez 4
Krejcikova 2
Sabalenka 2

Of course, will have, at a minimum, 6 people departing.
Best of luck.

[Irena2]

Now that Krejcikova is out, I have no chance of beating the draw. So now I guess I hope Sakkari beats Pliskova so I can pick the winner of Raducanu-Bencic and call it a day. Best of luck to those who still have the chance!

[ponchi101]

Update. We are down to 6, and three more rounds. The USO is indeed the toughest of the slams, even for us.

I'm in the same boat as you. I can't beat the draw either. These pool are super tough, this is the furthest that i have gone in a long while.

[ponchi101]

I have not closed the PICKS topic because it is not time, and in case somebody wants to change picks, but we have six picks in:
Bencic 2
Sakkari 2
Pliskova 1
Raducanu 1

Truly impressed that you guys are still alive, and I mean that sincerely. Best of luck.

[Suliso]

At least two will move on, but I didn't check if in that minimal scenario either has any picks left.

[JTContinental]

I'm back, baby! Big thanks to our fearless leader ponchi for filling in for me while I was in the wilds of Minnesota

What a boat it has turned out to be! Congratulations!
