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.

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.

My WTA US OPEN 2016 - Finals Pick, BRACKET THREE

BRACKET THREE

8 M. Keys – I had Madison losing to Garbine Muguruza in the quarterfinals. Now, that moves her to a potential matchup against Angelique Kerber, provided she reaches the appropriate level of focus. She has dodged two losses in the first three rounds and can no longer press her luck.
