Of the 8 remaining players, I picked 3 of them to reach this round. Process this: Serena Williams is the only player remaining who has won a major championship. This is a testament to her greatness.

US Open 2019 Women's Singles Round of 16 Picks, Top Half


US Open 2019 Third Round Picks, RESULTS
Top Half: 5 Wins; 3 Losses

Bottom Half: 7 Wins; 1 Losses
=======

9 Players Ranked/Seeded in the Top 16
14 Players Ranked/Seeded in the Top 32
1 Player with a Wild Card
1 Player with a Qualifier Bid

Of the 16 remaining players, I picked 9 of them to reach this round. There were some surprises (upsets) along the way. I've also changed my initial thought on one of my matchups [Osaka/Bencic] even though I picked both players to reach this round.

US Open 2019 Third Round Picks, Top Half

US Open 2019 Second Round Picks, RESULTS
Top Half: 13 Wins; 3 Losses

Bottom Half: 9 Wins; 7 Losses


[Osaka N.] (1) vs. Gauff C. (WC) -- This is a toss-up only because Osaka has peaks and valleys whereas Gauff has shown a steady level of exceptional play. Osaka's highest level, especially her serve will be the determining factor because Gauff's serve tends to level off in the second set.
