Drova is in position to be the 2nd alternate as it currently stands, that's wild.

If she can beat Iga she stands to make some notable gains in ground in the race cuz everyone in her vicinity in the race is out

Who would have thought? Tauson, Svitolina, Navarro, Bencic among those behind her in the race. Paolini went out but has a huge lead and the gap between 9th and 10th is big. But alternate doesn’t hurt and we can cheer anyway!

yes post-USO could get interesting depending on how Amanada, Elena, and Jessica do at USO

Anisimova is now only 151 points behind Andreeva and will pass her if she beat Swiatek

 

[Malva]

Anisimova is … if she beat Swiatek

If she can beat Iga…

The WTA Race thread became “If she can beat Iga…”

yes, when you edit others posters's posts

yes, Anisimova and Pegula could pull away from Rybakina and Paolini.... the next few days will see!

There’s also the possibility that Karolina, Marketa, Naomi or Barbora could snatch that last spot from Rybakina by winning the Open, and therefore make the race even harder for the 9-15 ranked players.

Anisimova and Pegula glide past Andreeva, Keys next for them

Osaka is likely the only one left who could spoil the party with an under #8 qualification via winning USO, barring some harebrained scenario where it ends up being Keys.

Swiatek's race for YEC #1 becomes in a little more jeopardy with a QF loss to Anisimova, over 800 points behind right now Sabalenka who got gifted a w/o to the USO SF.

Isn’t Keys safe though?

The Top 7 as it is right now is pretty good, I don't think anyone would argue that Sabalenka, Swiatek, Gauff, Keys, Anisimova, Pegula, and Andreeva have been the best players of the year—although Pegula is maybe a little debatable (but let's see how this USO shakes out).

Paolini and Rybakina would be quite unlucky to miss out if Osaka or Muchová get the last spot via winning USO, but it is what it is.

 

[Samsonite]

Andreeva needs to wake up or she's in danger because Rybakina can totally pass her...

 

[JiriVeselyGOAT]

Anisimova is now only 151 points behind Andreeva and will pass her if she beat Swiatek

She's done it, ahead of Mirra!

 

[PLP]

Personally I like the new rule where a slam winner in the top 20 gets the 8th spot, am totally cool with that.
Would also like Elena to play her heart out though and make the top 8.

I don't think there would be a more fitting end to her season than that.

I just meant gliding past in the positions

 

[MorganD]

As a Rybakina fan, in the end I'd rather she doesn't make YEC tbh. Gives her a longer off season and I also don't want to see her give Sabalenka another spanking and give me hopes she's back as a top 3 player.

 

[Gilas.]

Noemi winning the USO and sneaking a YEC WC is so on brand with the WTA. Then again she can still get direct entry with a good Asian swing!
