Predicted Winners in BOLD

[6] Agnieszka Radwanska (POL) vs [30] Varvara Lepchenko (USA) – Aga should make her way forward in a fairly straightforward manner.

[1] Serena Williams (USA) vs [26] Elina Svitolina (UKR) – Serena should move forward.

[4] Petra Kvitova (CZE) vs. Madison Keys (USA) – Lefty power

[18] Venus Williams (USA) vs Camila Giorgi (ITA) – I could see Venus losing here, but I have hope for the veteran.

[25] Barbora Zahlavova Strycova (CZE) vs Victoria Azarenka (BLR) – I am picking an upset here …

[24] Garbine Muguruza (ESP) vs. Timea Bacsinszky (SUI) – I love her talent, but I could see Garbine losing here.

Coco Vandeweghe (USA) vs. Madison Brengle (USA) – NBA power

[11] Dominika Cibulkova (SVK) vs [19] Alizé Cornet (FRA) – A mild upset as the weight of defending points and a crafty opponent
