Muguruza, against Vekic on the side of Krejcikova and Sabalenka

Garbiñe Muguruza in New York

As is usual in the women’s circuit, there is no easy draw for any tennis player, not even in a Grand Slam, because equality is maximum and anyone can beat anyone. Garbiñe Muguruza will not have it easy at all to succeed this year at the US Open (August 30-September 12). The Spanish will start her career against the Croatian Donna Vekic, a complicated rival, number 54 in the ranking, with whom he has a 1-1 in the face to face, with a last victory at the Mutua Madrid Open in 2018.

If this obstacle is overcome, by ranking, the German Petkovic, the Belarusian Azarenka, the Czech Krejcikova, another Belarusian, Sabalenka, and the Ukrainian Svitolina would be later on their route., before a hypothetical final against the Australian Barty, world number one and great favorite. A bumpy road against Grand Slam and WTA 1,000 winners.

Among the outstanding duels of the first round is the one in which she will face the Romanian Halep with the Italian Giorgi or the Americans Keys and Stephens.
