Since 2024 Obviously it also has something to do with many R1 matches and night schedule that causes public friction among players. Starting a match at 1:00 am ain't no longer cool...

Yeah, but it's about having only two matches in night session. Expanding R1 into three days means some show courts won't even have a night session on Sunday.

Yeah like ethe wintersport schedule is such a big deal in an Australian January Over half of singles games are 1st round-64 of 127- so it makes sense to spread them over 3 days (including a weekend day) Edited January 13 by Sindo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rafalgorka 1,386 Posted January 13 #40 Share Posted January 13 W Świątek - Collins Ferro - Noskova Svitolina - Tomova Siniakova - Kudermetova Ostapenko - Martic Tauson - Azarenka Navarro - Cocciaretto Gracheva - Vondrousova Rybakina - Bucsa Osorio - Paolini Kalinina - Kalinskaya Stephens - Kasatkina Zheng - Boulter Raducanu - Cirstea Zhu - Zarazua Burel - Pegula Sakkari - Avanesyan Kostyuk - Mertens Wozniacki - Timofeeva Korneeva - L Fruhvirtova Garcia - Saville Putintseva - Potapova Fernandez - Parks Jeanjean - Gauff Jabeur - Andreeva Rakhimova - Parry Alexandrova - Hunter Korpatsch - Krejcikova Samsonova - Podoroska Badosa - Vekic Tsurenko - Masarova B Fruhvirtova - Sabalenka But this is W tennis so I will be surprised if I am more than 65% correct heh probably much much more seeded players out in Rd1 hardest guess: Garcia vs Osaka the biggest predicted surprise: L Fruhvirtova beating Haddad Maia but obviously it may not happen at all but some other high seeded players may be out early (Ostapenko vs Birrell???
