2026 AOSP UPDATED Women's Picks and Results Thread

[jazzyg]

Rybakina is by no means a lock to beat Pegula. The favorite, yes, and a definite winner if she maintains her current level, but we're talking about Rybakina. She is capable of a dramatic dip at any time, as happened against Krejickova in the 2024 Wimbledon semi, and Pegula will make her play well to beat her.

We are happy to help.
Pick Svitolina

Thank you but no..this is all about having fun..

[Valynn]

I have to pick Svitolina even though I don't think she'll win. So I have to hope Pegula can beat Rybakina. Ironic that I was rooting against Pegula yesterday.

[JTContinental]

All these calculations are beyond me! Never even occurred to me.

Ha ha---I never understand them either and I've been running this contest for a decade.

Once we have updated thread a few of us start working out every possible scenario

[JTContinental]

Valynn bows out of the competition along with Elina Svitolina. This means that ashkor87 is guaranteed a medal and is just one Rybakina win away from being the sole champion. If Pegula prevails, both ashkor87 and Valynn will get medals.

Woof! Ryba gave me a heart attack..great fight by Pegula!
I got lucky a couple of times..

[ashkor87]

So close. So fun. Thanks to the organizers, and congratulations to ashkor87.

Congratulations to you too..I think your only mistake was picking Pegula too early...
