At one point in the last couple of seasons, Simona Halep appeared to be on the verge of falling away and spiraling down the WTA Rankings as results did not go her way. This season has seen Halep post some solid wins, win a couple of tournaments, and rise back to seventh in the world rankings. Her 23-5 record on hard courts is comparable to most on the circuit, and she is currently ranked fourth in the WTA Race to the Final. The big question is whether Halep is fully fit for this tournament. Halep won the Canadian Open with six consecutive victories and followed that up with a first-round victory at the Cincinnati Open.
Daria Snigur’s best Grand Slam performance prior to this year’s US Open was a second qualifying round appearance at both the Australian Open and Wimbledon. She went two better this time, winning the second and third qualifying rounds of the US Open to advance to the main draw. Aside from that, she has only appeared in two WTA tournament main draws in 2022, both of which she lost in the first round. And, while she is close to her personal best ranking of 125th in the world, she is still a long way from finding her footing against a player of Halep’s caliber.
