 Alright, so the ladies draw is officially out for Wimbledon, and there are some massive names playing, but of course there are a lot of names not playing because of the ban at Wimbledon. Let's go through the withdrawal this first. Alright, so a lot of players are not playing at Wimbledon this year because of, of course, the Russians and Belarusians being banned, starting with Sabalenka, she's not playing. Azarenka also not playing, Kazakina, Pavlia Cenkova, Sampsonova, Kudamatova, Alexandrova, Sastnovich, all of them are not playing, Gracheva, Podopova, Kalinskaya are all out of the draw as well because they're either Valer, Russian or Russian. Then of course, some players that are not on the entry list and didn't choose to play, Svetolina, she's not playing because she's pregnant, Gondrysov is also out, Christian is also out. We have Sofia Kenan, she's not playing, Fernandez also not playing, Osaka's out, Sharif and Konju are out of the draw. So that's the women's withdrawal list, massive list. Let's start with the top of the draw and Igor Shriyantek, the number one seed, 32 seeds in this one of course, the number one seed is Igor. She plays a qualifier in the first round, Fett in the first round, winner of that match takes on either Kartel or Covenage in the second round. Then we've got Lu versus Diaz, winner of that match takes on either Kornay or the number 27 seed Puttenseva in the second round. Now Puttenseva did beat Osaka at Wimbledon a few years ago, so maybe there's something there for Igor to worry about. Then you've got the number 18 seed, Tykmin, taking on Tomanovich, very fun matchup. Winner of that match takes on either Harrison or Rus in the second round. Then we've got Golovic versus Petkovich, winner of that match takes on either Zenevska or the number 13 seed, Krejkova in the second round. So this first section of the draw, the top section, Igor Shriyantek doesn't want to play Krejkova in the fourth round. Who knows, even though she hasn't played for a while, that'll be a tricky little matchup. Tomanovich is probably the biggest danger because Tomanovich made the quarterfinals of Wimbledon last year. But Igor's section, it has its dangers, but it should be manageable. But it's from the quarterfinals onwards where things get crazy. Let's go to the second section of the draw. So we've got Muggeruthin, number nine seed, taking on Minin. Winner of that match takes on either Zheng or Stevens in the second round. Then we've got Bektis versus Andrescu. Winner of that match takes on either Zheng or the 17th seed, Rabakina in the second round. Then we've got the 30th seed, Rodgers taking on Martich. Winner of that match takes on either Krejkova or Pegosi in the second round. Then we've got Masarova versus Dart. Winner of that match takes on either Vekic on the number eight seed, Pagula in the second round. Now this section of the draw, I think it's the most open out of the bunch because Muggeruthin's not in good form. Pagula on grass, what does that look like? Andrescu's playing well on grass, made a final this week. So maybe she's the one to watch out for in this section. Rabakina's got a good grass called game. Rodgers was always dangerous. So winner of this section, by the way, will play Igor Shviantec in the quarterfinals. So it could be Pagula versus Shviantec in the quarterfinals. It could be Muggeruthin Shviantec. But I think most likely if Form plays out, it's going to be Andrescu versus Shviantec in the quarterfinals, which is a fire quarterfinal matchup. Let's go to the third section of the draw. We've got Bodosa, the number four seed taking on a qualifier in the first round. Cherico, winner of that match takes on either Barra or Pakey in the second round. Then we've got Bogdan versus Jastramska. Winner of that match takes on either Polini or the number 25 seed Kovitova in the second round. Then we've got the 21st seed Georgie taking on Fretch. Winner of that match takes on either Pedersen or Schmidlova in the second round. Then we've got Flipkins versus the qualifier for Lez or for Liz. Winner of that match takes on either Mukova or the 16th seed Halep in the second round. That matchup is the best match of that section of the draw for sure. Mukova versus Halep, fire must watch first match. And also Halep seems like she's a little bit injured as well, so keep an eye on that. But look, this play is a watch out for obviously Bodosa, Halep, Mukova, the dangerous unseeded player, and Kovinova is getting some form as well this week. So very interested to see who comes out of this part of the draw. The fourth section of the draw to wrap up the top half of the draw. You've got Goff, the 11th seed, taking on Ruzae, one of our favourites in that first round. Winner of that takes on either Buzenescu or Schunk in the second round. Then we've got Bregel versus Davis. Winner of that play is either Wong or the number 20 seed Anissimova in the second round. Then we've got the 32nd seed Tormo taking on Mikhail. Winner of that match takes on either Serena Williams or Tan in the second round. Then we've got Boral versus Bolta. Winner of that match takes on either Martin Kovar or the number six seed Pliskeva in the second round. Serena could have a nice draw. She could make a fourth round if she avoids Pliskeva because Serena is obviously one to watch out for. Pliskeva is the finalist from last year. Very interested to see those two. Obviously Goff's in good form, but I'd also be watching out for Bolta. Bolta seems to be doing some good things on grass as well. And being in the UK, she'll have the crowd support as well. So Anissimova maybe as well. So there's a couple of players there in that section of the draw. But the top section or the top half of the draw is definitely the stacked part of the draw. And in the quarterfinals, we could be seeing Goff versus Halep. Which could be seeing Williams versus Halep. We could be seeing Pliskeva versus Halep. Or we could be seeing Podosa versus Williams, Podosa versus Pliskeva, or Podosa versus Goff if we go by the seeding. So very interested to see how that all plays out. Bottom half of the draw now. We've got the number seven seed, Collins taking on Buzkova. Winner of that match takes on either Brunzetti or Lee in the second round. Then we've got Siniakova versus a qualifier, Twilinska. Winner of that match takes on either Elbon or the number 28 seed, Risk in the second round. Then we've got the number 19 seed, Keys versus Doi. Winner of that match takes on either Kostjuk or Swan in the second round. Then we've got Garcia versus Miyazaki. Winner of that match takes on either Van Udvank or the number 10 seed, Rotokhanu in the second round. Rotokhanu's got a tricky draw because Van Udvank's tough. Garcia in the second round is really tough. And I think Beat, Rotokhanu this year as well. And then Keys, Risk, I mean the Americans are all there as well. So Rotokhanu, very tough draw. I don't know if she's going to get that far because I think Garcia in that second round might get her. Let's go to the next section of the draw with Kerber up the top here with the number 15 seed taking on Matajanovich. That's an interesting matchup. Winner of that takes on either Lynette versus Contrera in the second round. Then we've got Zedinsek versus Udvadi. Winner of that match takes on either Osorio or the 24th seed, Mertens in the second round. Then we've got the 31 seed, Kanepi taking on Parry. Winner of that match takes on either Towson or Hontama in the second round. Then we've got Merino versus Kawa. Winner of that match takes on either Borkland or the number three seed, Jabor in the second round. Jabor's got a nice draw. You know, she could get through to the fourth round kind of easy. I mean, she could be playing qualifiers all the way through potentially. So, and then play Kerber possibly in the fourth round. Jabor should make the quarters based on that. Winner of this section of the draw, by the way, could be playing against Daniel Collins. So we could get Jabor versus Collins. We could be getting Jabor versus Ratokhanu potentially in the quarterfinals. Then we've got number seven, the seventh section of the draw. We've got the number five seed, Sakri versus Hives. Winner of that match takes on either Sable or Tomoba in the second round. Then we've got Sharma versus Maria. Winner of that match takes on either Khrunich or the 26th seed, Kasteya in the second round. Then we've got the 22nd seed, Treveson taking on Chokki Uredo. Winner of that match takes on either Gogodas or Bogu in the second round. Then we've got Wickmire versus Zhu. Winner of that match takes on either Dodden or the 12th seed, Ostapenko in the second round. So, Ostapenko, Sakri, fourth round potentially. That could be happening. No one else really stands out to me on that in the draw. Maybe some of the Aussies, but again, I don't have much confidence in them unfortunately. Bottom section of the draw, we've got Benchish, the number 14 seed taking on Wong. Winner of that match takes on either Corpac or Watson in the second round. Then we've got English versus Gelfi. Winner of that match takes on either Duvarn or the 23rd seed, Hadid Maya in the second round. Then we've got the 29th seed, Kalanina versus Bondair. Winner of that match takes on either Burridge or Sharenko in the second round. Then we've got Nimayah versus Wong. Winner of that match takes on either Perra or the number two seed, Contavate in the second round. So, Hadid Maya, Benchish, they're the ones to watch out for. Contavate, I haven't seen on grass yet, so I don't know what to expect from her. But Benchish, Hadid Maya, they're the two that should get through this part of the draw. And like I said, the bottom section of the draw is really open. I mean, we could be getting anybody coming out of that part of the draw. And the potential quarterfinal matchups, we could be seeing Benchish take on Sakri. We could be seeing Benchish take on OstaPenko. We could be seeing OstaPenko take on Hadid Maya or Sakri versus Hadid Maya or Sakri versus Contavate. OstaPenko versus Contavate. So the bunch of matchups there, that could be happening, but now it's time for your prediction. Who's going to win this tournament? Let me know in the chat. Let me know in the description below if you're watching this later. Who's going to win this tournament? I think Ignis Fiontech, she has a nice draw until the second week. Second week's a nightmare. I think the bottom section or the bottom half of the draw is where you want to be. I think Onstrabour might have the best draw out of the top guns. But WTA, anything can happen. Who the hell knows? But let me know in the chat. What do you reckon? Who is going to win Wimbledon 2022 for the ladies?
