She's getting over the line when it comes to winning the slams, but still not enough for me.
This player is an absolute beast.
On her day, she can obliterate anybody in the women's draw.
She should be able to win every single one of the slams this year.
I actually looked at a bet where Sabalenka was priced up at just over 60 to 1 to win all of the slams this year.
And I don't think it's a terrible bet because that's what actually should happen.
She is head and shoulders above the rest.
She's head and shoulders, the best female player in the world on her day.
And she's been given all the attributes.
But these matches aren't won on attributes.
They're won by actually playing the games.
They're won by being able to be in there mentally and being able to cope with it.
And it doesn't come down to tools and skill set.
It comes down to being able to cope with it.
And when you are in the key moments,
not winning those key points when you are littered with unforced errors in big matches, which has been the story of Sabalenka's career.
You are going to fall short in finals and at semifinals where she has done.
She has a phenomenal record of making it through to the semifinals, which is why.
She's an automatic constantly to win her quarters, and she'll do so again here as a two to five favourite.
There isn't really too much competition here.
