Top 2023 U.S. Open Women’s Singles First Round

Maryna Zanevska vs. Aryna Sabalenka

  • When: Monday, August 28

Maryna Zanevska’s last tournament played was the Golden Gate Open at Stanford. Zanevska lost in the first round to top seed Tamara Korpatsch.

The fact Korpatsch was the top seed implies the Golden Gate Open wasn’t an ultra-competitive tournament. Zanevska should have no shot versus Sabalenka. Aryna is one of the best women tennis players on the planet. Sabalenka covers the handicap line.

2023 U.S. Open Betting Pick: Aryna Sabalenka -6.5 -130

Petra Kvitova vs. Cristina Bucsa

  • When: Monday, August 28

Underdog Cristina Bucsa takes on Claire Liu at the semifinals of the Chicago Women’s Open on August 25. There’s a good chance Bucsa beats Liu and then plays in the Chicago Open Final.

If that happens, Bucsa will be too tired to hang with a player of Petra Kvitova’s caliber. Kvitova will have had the weekend to rest up for this match. Petra covers.

2023 U.S. Open Betting Pick: Petra Kvitova -5 -118

Victoria Azarenka vs. Fiona Ferro

  • When: Monday, August 28

Fiona Ferro made it all the way to the final at the Barranquilla Open in her last tournament played. She lost to 1-seed Tatjana Maria via a 1-6, 2-6 score.

Victoria Azarenka lost to Donna Vekic in her last. The match happened in the second round of the Western & Southern Open. On Monday, Azarenka plays against an opponent that isn’t close to Vekic’s skill level. The favorite should have no trouble winning this match by at least 7 games.

2023 U.S. Open Betting Pick: Victoria Azarenka -6.5 -104

Aliaksandra Sasnovich vs. Magda Linette

  • When: Monday, August 28

Magda Linette is the seeded player in this matchup but Sasnovich is the favorite. It could be because Sasnovich has had better luck in recent tournaments.

In Linette’s last, the underdog in this lost to Ann Li in the first round at the Western & Southern Open. Sasnovich has won her last couple of first round matches. At the odds, the favorite is playable.

2023 U.S. Open Betting Pick: Aliaksandra Sasnovich -159

Anna Kalinskaya vs. Katerina Siniakova

  • When: Monday, August 28

Anna Kalinskaya hasn’t played in a tournament close to the level of the U.S. Open since the Internazionale BNL d’Italia in May. In that tournament, Kalinskaya made it to the third round where she had to bow out against Elena Rybakina, the third choice to win the U.S. Open, after a set.

Katerina Siniakova lost her first Tennis In the Land tournament match to Sara Sorribes Tormo. Siniakova isn’t playing well, which is why the slight chalk in this is the play.

2023 U.S. Open Betting Pick: Anna Kalinskaya -101

Elena Rybakina vs. Marta Kostyuk

  • When: Monday, August 28

Marta Kostyuk couldn’t get out of the first round at the Western & Southern Open. Jasmine Paolini beat Kostyuk 2-6, 1-6.

Rybakina is third choice to win the U.S. Open. Elena beat Jelena Ostapenko in the second round at the Western & Southern Open. Rybakina lost her third round match to Jasmine Polini, just like Kostyuk.

The favorite should win this. Rybakina is one of the best players in the world. So although she had a disappointing last tournament played, she’s better than what she showed.

2023 U.S. Open Betting Pick: Elena Rybakina -294
