Big favorites WTA Mutua Madrid Open 2023
The world’s best players are participating in this season’s fourth WTA 1000 tournament and their first on clay, having held respective tournaments in the same category in both Indian Wells and Miami. Every Swiatek, number one in the WTA rankings, is the biggest favorite to win the title she still lacks in her career. Every time he competes in a tournament, he confirms why he is always the competitor to beat main player to the final. However, they will not be under any pressure as they were not present in the last edition in 2022 and will not have to defend any spot.
Aryna Sabalenka, number two in the world, is another player to watch out for. After a very positive first leg for the championships of the 2023 season, the Belarusian player wants to arrive in Madrid with the idea improving its course through the Caja Magica River in the last edition. In 2022, she wouldn’t have much luck as she lost to American Amanda Anisimova in her debut.
If we talk about Mutua Madrid Open in WTA category, it should include Our Jabeur. The Tunisian is the number one racket to beat in any round as he was the champion of the series last held in 2022. Ranked fourth in the world rankings, Jabeur knows what it is to suffer in order to enjoy victory in Spain. Therefore, his mental work must be better than his tennis as he is under immense pressure to reassert the title he won only 12 months ago.
Outsiders
Outside of Europe, one of the favorites looks set to win the trophy. USA’s Coco Gauff wants to put in a great performance at the tournament in Madrid, from 2022 he was able to enjoy his tennis until the round of 16 after succumbing to Simona Halep. With the new expression, he wants to try to surprise, because his sixth place in the ranking reflects a considerable improvement compared to the previous months. Although if we are talking about improvement, it must be included in this ranking Elena Rybakinabecause the player from Kazakhstan is another of this current season’s revelations in the WTA rankings. In his case, he has to defend the 120 points obtained in 2022, as he lost in his third match against Jil Teichmann.
