Sabalenka as well as Swiatek are actually the preferences, yet a whole bunch of various other contenders are in the mix.Here are my favorite picks to gain the 2024 U.S. Open females's singles label.
Aryna Sabalenka.
Sabalenka is actually properly rested and also encouraged, having actually overlooked Wimbledon as a result of a shoulder problem before neglecting the Olympics. The Belarusian is actually back with a vengeance on North American tough courts. She is coming off a title in Cincinnati title, where she finished off both Swiatek and also Jessica Pegula. Sabalenka was second best at the USA Open in 2015 do not be actually stunned if she goes one measure farther.
Jessica Pegula.
Pegula's preparation for the united state Open was actually best. The 30-year-old American gained the Toronto headline before completing second best to Sabalenka in Cincy. An indigenous New Yorker, Pegula will delight in substantial home-court conveniences at this celebration. She met the one-fourths at Blush Meadows in 2022 as well as only may go all the way this time around.
Paula Badosa.
Badosa is actually an appealing longshot play. The Spaniard has topped as high as No. 2 on earth, therefore there is no doubt she possesses the skill to win a slam. Badosa is back coming from personal injury and also in excellent kind, gaining the Washington, D.C. label ahead of a semifinal operate in Cincinnati (shed to Pegula in 3 sets). The 26-year-old possesses an advantageous draw at the Billie Jean Master National Ping Pong Facility, where she get to know not deal with Sabalenka till the semis and Swiatek up until the final.Ricky provides to 10sballs. com and additionally maintains his personal tennis website, The Grandstand.
