WTAMonday, 19 August 2024 at 07:32
The draw has been confirmed ahead of the Abierto GNP Seguros (Monterrey Open) which takes place in the lead-up to the US Open as the final tournament before Flushing Meadows. It takes place between August 19-24, 2024.
Danielle Collins is top seed. After recent injury issues since the Olympic Games, she returns in Mexico. She faces Erika Andreeva or Anhelina Kalinina in the second round. Emma Navarro is perhaps the favourite though this week.
She has been in great form as of late and faces Ajla Tomljanovic or Camila Osorio in the second round. Her nearest seed is Magdalena Frech.
Elina Svitolina is also involved and takes on Elina Avanesyan or Elisabetta Cocciaretto in the second round. Ekaterina Alexandrova, Veronika Kudermetova, Linda Noskova are also among the seeds. But interestingly enough, the defending champion in Donna Vekic has withdrawn late.
As has Jasmine Paolini, Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova and Yulia Putintseva in what is a WTA 500 which many have called out for bizarre placing in the week prior to a Grand Slam after two 1000 tournaments anyway.

- Anti-Social media has no guardrails... and the Lowest Common Denominators are free to demean and denounce anyone, any time; and obviously do so on a daily basis. Why? Because thus far, given the lack of oversight (much less control) over these public immorally bankrupt entities, there is little-to-no possibility of legal repercussion.

Unless this woman is running for office she doesn't get -- nor deserve -- the opportunity to literally reinvent what she plainly said the first time. She's no longer a tennis player, does not represent the sport, and should therefor refrain from meaningless drivel and snottyass remarks about her former colleagues.mandoist11-09-2024
- How is it not clear to pro tennis Elitists in charge that flooding the sport with more and more tournaments is NOT the answer? Such decisions made through PURE GREED disguised as "offering more up & coming players a chance to compete". This sport is, at the very foundation, a Business. Any corporate entity should know by now that introducing too many 'franchises' to a limited market is counterproductive to say the very least? And let us not forget the Top Athletes cannot be everywhere week-to-week no matter how much money the tourneys throw at them. Therefor you get a situation such as the US Open missing out on the Best-of-the-Best. Simple economics -- and definitely common sense -- seems to be lost on the WTA/ATP 'experts' in the offices.mandoist11-09-2024
