.Despite The Fact That Iga Swiatek is conveniently No. 1 in the world, there is really a nice amount of parity on the WTA Trip presently. 3 various girls have actually succeeded the initial three majors in 2024: Aryna Sabalenka (Australian Open), Swiatek (French Open), and also Barbora Krejcikova (Wimbledon). Add the Paris Olympics in to the equation and also it's 4 different victors (Qinwen Zheng). In addition, 5 various females have actually gained the U.S. Open headline over the past 5 periods. In the last ten years, merely Naomi Osaka has succeeded it twice.All of that need to create an interesting competition. Sabalenka and Swiatek are the preferences, yet a whole lot of various other contenders remain in the mix.Here are my preferred selections to succeed the 2024 U.S. Open females's singles title.
Aryna Sabalenka.
Sabalenka is actually well rested and inspired, having missed out on Wimbledon because of a shoulder issue prior to passing up the Olympics. The Belarusian is back with a vengeance on N. United States tough courts. She is actually coming off a title in Cincinnati name, where she finished off both Swiatek and Jessica Pegula. Sabalenka was runner-up at the USA Open in 2013 do not be amazed if she goes one step even farther.
Jessica Pegula.
Pegula's prep work for the united state Open was actually best. The 30-year-old American succeeded the Toronto label just before completing second best to Sabalenka in Cincy. A native New Yorker, Pegula will certainly delight in considerable home-court benefit at this event. She achieved the one-fourths at Flushing Meadows in 2022 and only may go all the way this moment around.
Paula Badosa.
Badosa is actually a fascinating longshot play. The Spaniard has actually peaked as higher as No. 2 worldwide, thus there is actually no doubt she possesses the skill to gain a bang. Badosa is actually back coming from trauma as well as in outstanding kind, succeeding the Washington, D.C. label ahead of a semifinal operate in Cincinnati (shed to Pegula in three collections). The 26-year-old possesses a positive draw at the Billie Jean Master National Ping Pong Facility, where she encounter not face Sabalenka up until the partially and also Swiatek up until the final.Ricky provides to 10sballs. com as well as likewise preserves his personal tennis web site, The Grandstand.
