barbora has more class, grace, patience, and kindness in her toenail than all of the shitty sexist tennis commentators combined btw

alright, here is my wta finals draw analysis! I was debating on how to format this for a bit, and I decided to go player by player. so, here it goes:

purple group:

aryna sabalenka: aryna, in my opinion, is the favorite to win. the faster conditions of the court suit her, and I have a feeling it's going to be similar to the 2022 wta finals where she can use that to her advantage. her personal pigeon, qinwen, is pretty much a lock win for her, especially on this court speed. her h2h with jasmine is tied, but aryna won both of her matches on fast hardcourt, with jasmine winning on grass and slow hardcourt. still, jasmine can always bring it against any player and if aryna is struggling with her serve at all, jasmine can take advantage of that. and then there's elena. I'll get to her specifics in her section, but if she's healthy then she can always trouble aryna, especially on these quick courts (we all remember the brisbane final). if she does make the semis, which is likely, she'd be the favorite against anyone in the orange group (yes, even iga – again, think of the 2022 wta finals)

jasmine paolini: what can't she do. I could see her going deep in singles and in doubles and maybe even taking home a trophy, who knows. this year, she's proven herself to be an all-surface player. I think she for sure has a chance against aryna is she serves really well and returns like she always does. she already beat elena at rg this year, but the faster court will make elena's serve more effective and that will definitely be a challenge for jasmine. now, apparently jasmine is 0-3 against qinwen, two of which came on fast hardcourt (and two of which went to three sets). that'll be an interesting one for sure. if she makes it to the semis, I think all of the matchups will be rough for her except maybe coco

elena rybakina: honestly, there's not much I can say here because elena is just so unpredictable. if she's healthy, she can absolutely beat the other three in her group, but we just don't know where her level is at. I hesitate to make any predictions regarding her, I just hope she's doing the right thing for her body in playing the finals and that she's not rushing whatever recovery she needs

zheng qinwen: I'm sure qinwen saw aryna in her draw and sighed, but other than that, things are actually looking decent for her. like I said, she's 3-0 against jasmine and a faster surface probably favors her, especially if her serve is on. she's 0-2 against elena, but the last time they played was in 2023 and qinwen has massively improved since then. and even with aryna, qinwen actually got a set in their last match and is for sure improving in the matchup. if she gets to the semis, I could see her making things competitive with all four members of the orange group (she definitely has a psychological edge over iga after the olympics)

orange group:

iga swiatek: similarly to elena, we don't really know where iga's level is right now. that said, it's iga. she can beat anyone. she's been known to randomly lose to barbora sometimes, but she's also beaten her twice and is for sure the favorite in the matchup. against coco, it's pretty much a guaranteed win. the biggest hurdle for iga is obviously going to be jess, who just beat her at the us open and can always make things competitive. the other downside for iga is the speed of the courts, the fastest court she genuinely thrived on this year was doha, but on faster hardcourts like the ao and miami, she really struggled. since this is indoors, the court is going to be faster and may give her trouble. if she makes the semis, she'd have close matches with most of the purple group, with probably the exception of jasmine

coco gauff: poor coco. this is probably the worst draw she could have asked for. iga is obviously her worst matchup ever, with coco only winning one of twelve matches they've played. maybe she has more of a chance on this court, but not much. coco also really struggles with jess and has only beaten her once in five matches, and three of her losses haven't been that competitive. with barbora, she is securely the favorite but still has an 0-1 h2h against her. for coco to do well here, it's going to take consistent groundstrokes and, most importantly, good serving. if she's double faulting all over the place, she has no chance. but if she's serving well, she can use the speed of the court to her advantage. if she does make the semis, I think she matches up pretty well with everyone in the purple group, but they also match up well with her

jessica pegula: last year, jess surprised everyone with a near-sweep at the wta finals, only losing to iga in the end – and losing badly. that said, I think she has a lot of confidence from both that run and her wild year. she matches up really well against coco and is probably the favorite despite what the rankings would suggest. she has a lot of momentum against iga, and really seems to have figured out how to play her. I'm not really sure how she matches up with barbora, but on this surface she's for sure the favorite. if she makes the semis, I don't think she can get over her struggles with aryna but she could definitely beat the rest of the purple group

barbora krejcikova: I'm going to be perfectly honest here, I don't think she's going to win a match. since wimbledon, she really hasn't had any good results and has been constantly getting upset. there's also the fact that she's just not one of the eight best players this season, she got in through her wimbledon win. the surface doesn't suit her at all considering her preference for natural surfaces. iga is just a better player, and I think coco and jess are too but especially on this surface. it would be cool if she could prove everyone wrong, but I don't think she's going to. if she makes the semis, she might have the edge against jasmine because of the wimbledon final, but I think that's it
