Collins should win this one, she is the best player in the draw...

But this is not an easy field. I am surprised, considering it is in Mexico and the USO starts next week. Some really good players are showing up.

Mostly those who have had a disappointing start to the hardcourt season and need the matches to get their confidence back....

[ashkor87]

And it is a 500 tournament, so certainly worth the effort...

[ponchi101]

It must be. I say Collins and Navarro could be playing in Cleveland, which is much closer to NYC.
Then again, I am sure that Navarro has that Gulfstream 50 ready for takeoff within one hour of when she loses or finishes the tournament. And she will bring Collins if needed. AND it will have a masseuse and plenty of refreshments for the flight to NYC.

[ashkor87]

They will have earned it

saw a bit of the Andreeva-Collins match on highlights.. interesting..in the first set and a half, Collins was blowing her off the court, then Andreeva threw a switch and turned it into a foot race.. drops, subtle angles and put aways..whenever Collins tried the same, Andreeva reached them easily - moves really really well. (this is the other Andreeva ..).. also I thought Collins ran out of energy as the match went on.

[ashkor87]

Collins should win this one, she is the best player in the draw...

well, that didnt quite work out..Andreeva beat her already.

My preferred strategy when predicting WTA matches that do not involve Iga on clay is to read chicken entrails. A freshly slaughtered chicken.
I find it much more reliable than tea leaves or the locally accepted practice of coffee grinds.
