Top Half:
1.Halep
A-Another tough Draw as she has Karolina Pliskova in the quarters and possibly Madison Keys.
B-If she makes it to the semis Muguruza or Garcia will await.
Projection- Finalist after she beats Garcia in the semis.
3.Mugurza
A-Better draw than Indian Wells, she has a winnable section with Sloane Stephens in 4th and probably Caroline Garcia in the quarters.
Projection- Garcia wins over Mugurza
Bottom Half:
4.Elina Svitolina
A-This is not easy as she has Daria Kasatkina possibly in the quarters (if Kasatkina can beat Ostapenko)
B-Before hand she has either Serena Williams or Naomi Osaka in round 2 (I think Serena wins) and then if she beats Serena she gets Gavrilova then Kristina Mladenovic
Projection-Loses to Serena in round 2 (Serena vs Kvitova quarterfinal in this section)
2.Caroline Wozniacki
A-Decent draw with Kontaveit in round 3 then CoCo Vandeweghe in the 4th round before she meets Venus Williams in the quarters. Note-Venus does not have Serena in her section this time, she has qualifiers the 1st 2 rounds before she faces Kiki Beterns in round 3 then Johnna Konta in round 4. She would not face her sister until the semis.
Projection-Quarterfinal win over Venus Williams
Semifinals- Garcia vs Halep with Halep in 3 and Wozniacki losing to Serena Williams in 3.
Final-Halep vs Williams with Halep in 3
