Predicted Winners in BOLD

These will be quick as my time is limited

[4] Agnieszka Radwanska (POL) vs. Monica Niculescu (ROU) – This could go either way, but I think Aga has to be the pick.

[6] Venus Williams (USA) vs. Barbora Strycova (CZE) – Venus should have had enough time to travel and recover from Sunday’s long match.

[11] Dominika Cibulkova (SVK) vs. Eugenie Bouchard (CAN) – I like Cibulkova to win, but I was surprised that Bouchard won her first match.

[2] Angelique Kerber (GER) vs. Mirjana Lucic-Baroni (CRO) – Kerber should win this match, but Lucic-Baroni won’t fold so Kerber has to go and win rather than wait for ML-B to lose.

[7] Roberta Vinci (ITA) vs. [Q] Camila Giorgi (ITA) – An Italian rumble that will end in an upset?

[17] Elina Svitolina (UKR) vs. [WC] Françoise Abanda (CAN) – She is a talent.

[10] Madison Keys (USA) vs. Madison Brengle (USA) – Which Madison will reign supreme?

[12] Petra Kvitova (CZE) vs. Andrea Petkovic (GER) – Kvitova is so erratic I can’t pick her here.

[8] Carla Suarez Navarro (ESP) vs. [Q] Kristina Kucova (SVK)

[14] Karolina Pliskova (CZE) vs. Sara Errani (ITA)

[15] Johanna Konta (GBR) vs. [Q] Vania King (USA)

[16] Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (RUS) vs. [LL] Christina McHale (USA)

[13] Samantha Stosur (AUS) vs. Daria Kasatkina (RUS)

[9] Svetlana Kuznetsova (RUS) vs. [Q] Alla Kudryavtseva (RUS) – A Russian Civil War?
