🎾 Top Seeds Face Tough Roads

World No. 1 Aryna Sabalenka headlines the top half of the draw. She opens against Canadian qualifier Carson Branstine, but could face Olympic champion Marketa Vondrousova, comeback queen Elina Svitolina, or a surging Madison Keys or Leylah Fernandez in the quarterfinals.

At the bottom half, Coco Gauff [2], the reigning US Open champion, has a challenging path ahead. Early potential matchups include Victoria Azarenka or Sofia Kenin, with a possible semifinal clash against Iga Swiatek [8], who is still in search of her first Wimbledon crown.
