  • Elise Mertens has the easiest overall draw, as she is 1.19 percentage points more likely to win the tournament than expected. On the other hand, Victoria Azarenka has a tough draw. She is 1.19 percentage points less likely to win the tournament than expected.
  • The toughest 1st round draw went to Carla Suarez Navarro, as she's 44.74 percentage points less likely to win than a player of her rank is expected to win. Madison Brengle got the easiest 1st round draw, as she's 34.25 percentage points more likely to make it to round 2 than her ranking would expect.
