Re: Contest - 2017 Wimbledon - Womens Singles
Kerber and Muguruza have both played in Wimbledon finals over the past two years. This feels like a toss-up to me, but I'll stick with No. 1 for now and take Kerber.
Azarenka is unseeded because of a long layoff and could very well pull off the upset. She's a former world number 1. In fact, I'll take her here. Ostapenko is on fire right now. I'll take another upset. This is a toss-up. Wozniacki has been atop the rankings, but she's never won a Slam. I'll take Coco. Konta will fly the flag for Britain and advance. Kuznetsova dominates her rivalry with Radwańska, so I follow suit. Venus will win, and she should be more of a favorite. She's won this event five times. I've never heard of either Rybáriková or Martić. Martić was a qualifier, though, so I'll take the other one.

I am a little late with my submissions, but the games won't start for a couple hours so hopefully that's fine.
