US Open - Womens Day 9

In the Ladies, Sloane Stephens is a confident pick against Anastasija Sevastova after an incredible come-back from injury over the past couple of months.

Stephens pulled out of the 2016 US Open with a foot injury that was to rule her our for almost nine months - a period that included surgery to correct the problem. Since coming back however she has looked imperious, and has been in the form of her life arguably.

She reached the semi-finals in both Toronto's Rogers Cup and in Cincinatti the following week, and she is threatening to make it a hat-trick here.

The pair have never met, so we fall back on their two season hard court form - Sloane Stephens is 19-8 against Top 100 players courtesy of her excellent recent form, while Sevastova is a less impressive 15-18 on hard courts and could be vulnerable here.
