A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Francesca Jones goes up against Magda Linette in the US Open first round. Magda Linette limps in on a 2-match losing skid, just 4 wins in 10. Francesca Jones has won 10 in a row and 10 of the last 10 overall.

Magda Linette simply rates much higher on hard, and our number follows from it. A tiebreak or two would surprise nobody, with Linette fractionally more likely to land the big points.
