Pre-match predictions

1. Today features top-level clashes as these are the round of 16 matches.
2. Does Zhang Shuai still have a chance against Gauff today? Regardless of the result, Zhang Shuai remains a role model for young Chinese tennis players like Wang Xinyu, showing that one should not be intimidated before facing strong opponents. We must be brave to take the challenge and fight hard. Hopefully, Zhang Shuai can cause an upset over Gauff again, even if the chances are less than 30%.
3. In the other matches, it’s likely the favorites will prevail. Sabalenka, Swiatek, Paolini, and Pegula are all expected to win and advance. What do you think?
