19 players remain, and despite TMQ's very prescient warning, most have chosen to glibly jump on the bandwagon that has repeatedly malfunctioned during the first 4 days. Let's see what happens!

Elina Svitolina 10
Linda Noskova 4
Amanda Anisimova 3
Cristina Bucsa 1
Madison Keys 1

Elina has become dependable. And she always was, meaning, she would take care of the players she had to take care of.

Well...there went the bandwagon...as warned!

But honestly, given that set of matches, I probably would pick Svitolina again. Combo of saving some players for next round and some other matches being toss-ups. Oh well!

4th day in a row of a bandwagon crash--this has got to be some type of record.

It was the right match to pick from, just the wrong player.

Picking Mertens is never the right decision in a SP :)

If Mertens plays like she did today--a big if--she will beat Sabalenka. I was in attendance, and she easily could have won 6-1, 6-3. She had everything working.

Funny thing about SP is, it gets easier, not harder, in later rounds..players are settled in, we know how the courts are behaving .it s really the first few days that blow us away (me too)

Just 7 remain for day 6 with just one final hurdle to surmount before an invitation to the coveted UPDATED Picks & Results thread. Conventional wisdom says the 4 Alexandrova pickers might as well just make their final arrangements now.

The breakdown

Ekaterina Alexandrova 4
Dayana Yastremska 2
Liudmila Samsonova 1

TMQ will close this thread out tomorrow with an R32 wrap up!

Has it ever happened that updated thread was not made because everyone was dead already?

That I don't remember happening (in the slams at least, not that IW and Miami get updated threads anyway!)
