 (This post has been updated with Magda Linette replacing Catherine Bellis)
  • Karolina Pliskova is the most likely to win the tournament, with a 11.36% chance of winning the whole thing, with Angelique Kerber next at 10.39%. The 3rd most likely is Johanna Konta with 7.58% and Elina Svitolina 4th with 7.45%
  • Once again, Kiki Bertens has a really easy draw compared to other players with a similar ELO rating. I have her as the 46th most likely winner, while she is only the 62nd highest ranked player here.
  • On the other hand, Varvara Lepchenko has the toughest draw. She is the 63rd highest ranked player here, but is the 78th most likely winner of the tournament.
  • The toughest 1st round draw went to Johanna Larsson, as she's the 83rd most likely player to progress to round 2, but she's ranked 47th of the competitors. (Alison Riske had the toughest R1 until the update, she's now the 2nd toughest)
  • Carina Witthoft and Kateryna Bondarenko got the easiest 1st round draws, as they're the 45th and 59th most likely players to advance to round 2, while they're the 71st and 85th highest ranked competitors here.
Here's the full table. Want to be the 1st to hear of new updates: Follow @tennis_elo on Twitter.
