There goes my Ostapenko/Osaka match.

Still hoping for a Serena/Sloane QF

Wow what a nice draw for Q/LL (Halep too).
Plenty of tough 1R matches

LL is Camila Giorgi vs Sevastova

Begu vs Q-Tomljanovic
Q-Kanepi vs Q-Lepchenko
Q-Cornet vs Ostapenko
Q-Bogdan vs Makarova
Q-Sasnovich vs Q-Kuzmova
Q-Peterson vs Siniakova
Q-T-Maria vs Q-Kiick

I bet that the real LL will be Vekic, getting Halep's spot (with bye) as soon as Simona will announce her withdrawal.

Why should Simona wds? As soon she's winning, she can run every ball down, even with blisters on both feets

I am ready to bet that Simona will withdraw from this tournament, before or, better, after her first match (second round).

Well, I hope she will, to get ready for the Big Apple.
