THE LOWDOWN
Recent Olympic Gold Medallist Belinda Bencic is certainly one to watch for the US Open title this fortnight and her opening straight-sets victory over Arantxa Rus was extremely positive. The 24-year-old was a semi-finalist here in 2019, losing to eventual champion Bianca Andreescu, but she could well go one further this time around. World number 106 Martina Trevisan won just her seventh match this season on Tuesday with a straight-sets victory over Coco Vandeweghe. The Italian was a shock quarter-finalist at Roland-Garros last season on her debut.
THE PREDICTION
World number 12 Belinda Bencic is still clearly riding the emotional highs of her shock Gold Medal, and Doubles Silver alongside Viktorija Golubic, won at the Tokyo Olympic Games last month. The Swiss will take some serious stopping in this mood, especially on her favoured surface at the Grand Slam she has enjoyed by far the most success in her young career. Bencic and Trevisan will meet for the first time on Thursday with a fair gulf in quality between them at this moment in time and taking Bencic to win in straight sets seems a solid option.
