Really hoping Coco Gauff wins RG - the only person who's beaten her the last 3 years is Swiatek so if she doesn't have to face her she has a really good shot
I think next year will be the year she turns the tables on the Iga problem. Really hoping she uses the offseason to work on the forehand more. it's getting better but no player with a weak forehand has won Roland Garros specifically. It's the one slam that absolutely requires a dictating forehand to win. I'm thinking about Capriati, Sharapova , Muguruza, Nadal and Alcaraz, Moya. It is a surface that favors extreme forehands but she's got to make it more of a weapon.
I may be a little bias but I think Jessica Pegula will make it pass the QF again next year either at the AO or SW19. I have to agree that iga won’t win a slam next year just have a feeling. I think coco will win RG
AO - Rybakina - after a long lay-off, I thought her year end performances were very impressive RG - Paolini - her game is very well suited to clay W - Gauff - Her movement gives her the edge US - Saba - Best surface for her game and she's done well before
I think it affected Iga pretty much (I watched interview with her on the polish tv) but in my opinion you’re underestimating her a little bit. She said something that when she couldn’t play tennis she realized how she loves it… maybe she will be more relaxed on the court and be more happy than stressed? Maybe this situation will make her even stronger Why I think you’re underestimating Iga is because she’s very strong mentally. Why would this strength only apply to playing tennis? She seems very mature for her age
It affected her much, but she was in difficult situation earlier in her career and life in general, it affected her performance in Rijad, but she dealt with many stuff in last three years, so I think that with Daria’s (her psychologist) help she can use this situation to make play more freely, which she obviously didn’t do recently
I think Osaka may have a deep run in Australia, but only if she doesn’t meet a top 10 player in an early stage. Of course she may be able to beat one, but there is always a chance she gets to play for example Sabalenka in the first or second found. I hope she won’t play Iga, as I’m Iga’s fan, and win a couple of matches to get more points, because her level is usually higher than her ranking suggests and I don’t like when two very good players meet too early because it seems unfair when both deserve to play more matches and would do so if they had a better draw
As for the Australian Open, I would like him to win there, although it may not happen. That would be Krejcikova, considering her doubles career. There she won five Grand Slams at the Australian Open, including three mixed doubles and two women's doubles, as well as a final in 2021. With Sabalenka, Swiatek, Zheng and Rybakina as rivals to beat in Australia for the Czech, who won Wimbledon this year, everything is possible in tennis.
Iga didn't really play like Sinner except for WTA with 2 minth rusty break (again Sinner didn't have any breaks) so it's hard to say that she was mentally affected.
AO : Rybakina Dark horse : Bencic / kalisinkaya 2nd week : paolini /collins RG : Zheng Dark horse : anisimova / Garcia / Kostyuk 2nd week : Svitolina /vekic Wimbledon : Sabalenka Dark horse : raducanu / Pliskova 2nd week : ostapenko /shnaider /samsonova Us Open : Pegula /osaka Dark horse : noskova / Andreeva 2nd week : kenin / Badosa Also watch out for Srmkova . She will be top 20 this year
Sorry for the long analysis: AO: Champion: Qinwen Zheng def Iga Swiatek Dark Horses: Naomi Osaka/Danielle Collins Storyline: Qualifier outside Top 100 to reach second week - Zheng finally defs Sabalenka in QF/SF FO: Champion: Coco Gauff def Aryna Sabalenka Dark Horses: Karolina Muchová/Elina Avanesyan Storyline: Iga Swiatek shock defeat before 3R - one other top 10 player to withdraw before tournament W: Champion: Karolina Muchová def Jessica Pegula Dark Horses: Emma Raducanu/Daria Kasatkina Storylines: Emma Raducanu makes first GS QF or better since US Open 2021 - shock R1 exit by a top 10 player - Pegula inspired run to second GS Final - Czech Republic wins Wimbledon 3rd year in a row UO: Champion: Naomi Osaka def Coco Gauff Dark Horses: Diana Schaider/Linda Nosková Storyline: Naomi Osaka (to be seeded at this years UO) makes inspired run to win first GS since AO 2021, most viewed GS final of the year Notes: Sabalenka/Rybakina to make second week of every GS, but suprisingly not win one next year (but will win some other big titles) Different winner for each GS this season Osaka to finally make a second week at either FO or W Swiatek has one of her best starts of the season (first few months), but surprisingly average clay season Gauff to get 2 or more wins over Swiatek this season Paolini and Navarro to have more average season compared to 2024, which results in ranking drops for both players Danielle Collins to get at least 3 top 10 wins for her last season Player from outside top 200 to make top 50 by year end Osaka and Gauff to be in the top 3 most paid women athletes 2025 Top 20 player gets injured during start of season and sidelined for months Well known player announces first pregnancy 2025 Year end Top 10 (biggest shake up since last few seasons): 1) Coco Gauff 2) Qinwen Zheng 3) Aryna Sabalenka 4) Jessica Pegula 5) Iga Swiatek 6) Elena Rybakina 7) Karolina Muchová 8) Paula Badosa 9) Diana Schaider 10) Naomi Osaka
AO - Gauff RG - Gauff, Andreeva stunning Swiatek W - Rybakina US - Andreeva I see Sabalenka not winning a slam next year but maybe getting a final or two. Iga wont win a slam, will fire Wim Fissette at the end of the year. Andreeva's maiden slam is coming next year, I see the same fire in her that Serena had at that age and her time has come. 2025 will see Gauff at the top.
Even choosing three times Aryna and once Swiatek, I think it will make more sense choosing Iga to win rg and Aryna US open, but maybe you’re right ( I hope not because I’m an Iga fan, so I want Iga to win everything)
I just think Iga will do worse this year. Mainly because I’m not sure about her new coach. I thought her old coach brought kind of a fear factor because he made Iga so consistent and almost robotically efficient in everything. Everyone knows Iga has the best mentality on tour as well. I just don’t know who stops Sabalenka in AO and Wimbledon, apart from maybe Rybakina.

Very good observation!
Coco is not afraid of Iga anyone. The WTA tournament victory proves that.

@@krystiankowalik132 With this version of Coco, that will change. Beginning next season, when she lifts the Australian Open firstly.

Hmm
I think muchova will a deep run in the slams. Someone like linda noskova might also come to the party this year.
I really hope injuries will stay away from her and she finally wins a slam or at least a masters title
I agree, Rybakina is my dark horse as well, if her coaching relationship with Goran is fruitful.
👀
👀
And her health
@WestonMeyer-n6x yes but it's all connected. If she creates a good environment around her she shall be healthier as well.
Thank you so much for this prediction. 👍
Thanks Angela!
Sabalenka, Vekic, Paolini, Navarro
...and Muchova

Nice one, agreed re Srmkova
Like your out of box thinking. However leaving out iga is a very risky call. But I think you onto something here.
Yeah it's definitely risky...let's see!
Sorry for the long analysis:
AO:
Champion: Qinwen Zheng def Iga Swiatek
Dark Horses: Naomi Osaka/Danielle Collins
Storyline: Qualifier outside Top 100 to reach second week - Zheng finally defs Sabalenka in QF/SF
FO:
Champion: Coco Gauff def Aryna Sabalenka
Dark Horses: Karolina Muchová/Elina Avanesyan
Storyline: Iga Swiatek shock defeat before 3R - one other top 10 player to withdraw before tournament
W:
Champion: Karolina Muchová def Jessica Pegula
Dark Horses: Emma Raducanu/Daria Kasatkina
Storylines: Emma Raducanu makes first GS QF or better since US Open 2021 - shock R1 exit by a top 10 player - Pegula inspired run to second GS Final - Czech Republic wins Wimbledon 3rd year in a row
UO:
Champion: Naomi Osaka def Coco Gauff
Dark Horses: Diana Schaider/Linda Nosková
Storyline: Naomi Osaka (to be seeded at this years UO) makes inspired run to win first GS since AO 2021, most viewed GS final of the year
Notes:
Sabalenka/Rybakina to make second week of every GS, but suprisingly not win one next year (but will win some other big titles)
Different winner for each GS this season
Osaka to finally make a second week at either FO or W
Swiatek has one of her best starts of the season (first few months), but surprisingly average clay season
Gauff to get 2 or more wins over Swiatek this season
Paolini and Navarro to have more average season compared to 2024, which results in ranking drops for both players
Danielle Collins to get at least 3 top 10 wins for her last season
Player from outside top 200 to make top 50 by year end
Osaka and Gauff to be in the top 3 most paid women athletes 2025
Top 20 player gets injured during start of season and sidelined for months
Well known player announces first pregnancy
2025 Year end Top 10 (biggest shake up since last few seasons):
1) Coco Gauff
2) Qinwen Zheng
3) Aryna Sabalenka
4) Jessica Pegula
5) Iga Swiatek
6) Elena Rybakina
7) Karolina Muchová
8) Paula Badosa
9) Diana Schaider
10) Naomi Osaka
Wow very interesting!
AO - Gauff
RG - Gauff, Andreeva stunning Swiatek
W - Rybakina
US - Andreeva
I see Sabalenka not winning a slam next year but maybe getting a final or two. Iga wont win a slam, will fire Wim Fissette at the end of the year. Andreeva's maiden slam is coming next year, I see the same fire in her that Serena had at that age and her time has come. 2025 will see Gauff at the top.

AO Open: Sabalenka
RG: Sabalenka
Wimbledon: Sabalenka

I just think Iga will do worse this year. Mainly because I’m not sure about her new coach. I thought her old coach brought kind of a fear factor because he made Iga so consistent and almost robotically efficient in everything. Everyone knows Iga has the best mentality on tour as well.
I just don’t know who stops Sabalenka in AO and Wimbledon, apart from maybe Rybakina.
