    Cici Bellis

    Will be a top-five player within two years. This girl is incredible. I recommend taking her anytime that she's an underdog on a hard court.

    That was an incredible performance. If you didn't know anything about the players, Cici looked like the veteran that's ranked 6th in the world.

    Are you going to back her against Wozniacki?

    A good player will punish her with her serves.

    2 years may be pushing it. I predicted Bencic would be top ten 2 years ago, she reached it then injuries and frustration set her back. Bellis really good for her age though, like the bounce in her step. Special players make top 5 ever. Time will tell.

    Maybe a bit of an overreaction after the amazing match against Aga. That being said I'm definitely going to continue to back her against Wozniacki. I'm shocked the books are still laying such high odds on her success.

    I half agree with you. I watched her beat Cibulkova courtside at the US Open few years back. Must have only been 16 years old. I think she'll take a while to develop. Maybe top 10 within 5-6 years. Girls be streaky. Plus US WTA players seem to get hurt fairly often and at a fairly young age. Hope she stays in school for the duration.

    Also, Aga was straight garbage the other day.
