Talk About Tennis 2.0

Alcaraz 60
Sinner 30
Zverev 4
Rune 4 (he took one set off Alcaraz at Barcelona, before Alcaraz was injured)
Field 2

WTA
Sabalenka 20
Swiatek 10
Gauff 15
Paolini 15
Field: 40

I know that Swiatek is playing terrible tennis at the moment (for her standards). But I cannot rule out a 4 time champion that is only 24 yo.

Yes, you are right about Swiatek
Revised Prob:
Andreeva and Sabalenka 20% each
Paolini 15
Gauff, Swiatek, Zheng 10 each
Field 15

I'm going to modify ponchi101's prediction slightly

Zverev 0

Sabalenka 30
Gauff 20
Paolini 20

doesnt add up to 100

evidently folks think Andreeva has no chance, at least, less worthy of mention than Gauff and Paolini.. isnt that strange? Andreeva is young, improving every day - beat Sabalenka at IW and is clearly omfortable on clay.

havent found a printable draw yet.. we desperately need one!
ok, the RG website has it now.

Exactly that. I don't see her separating herself from a lot of "the field". Not yet.
If she makes me eat my words three Saturdays from now, I will be delighted. But right now, there is something about her game on clay that has not gelled yet.

Andreeva hasn't developed the proper patience to be really effective on this surface. That can of course come as she matures.

Gauff is going to be on a mission along with Sabalenka and Swiatek. If Qinwen decides to join them it could get interesting.
