Madison Keys Betting Preview
Madison Keys is coming off a straight set win over Maya Joint that took 16 Games to decide. In the victory, Keys won 74 percent of her first serve points and 60 percent of her second serve points.

Keys has dropped a combined 9 Games in her first 4 sets and looks to win 3 straight matches for the first time since Wimbledon. Keys looks to make the fourth round of a grand slam for the fourth time in her last 5 appearances. Keys is 6-2 in US Open third round matches. Keys has won 5 of her last 8 matches on hard court.
Elise Mertens Betting Preview
Elise Mertens is coming off a straight set win over Ajla Tomljanovic that took 17 Games to decide. In the victory, Mertens won 84 percent of her first serve points and 46 percent of her second serve points. Mertens won 69 percent of his total service points and converted on 3 of her 9 break points. Mertens got 61 percent of her first serves in play and hit 15 winners. Mertens has a chance to win 3 straight matches for the first time since Hobart back in January. Mertens has played over four hours of Tennis to get to this third round match. Mertens looks to make the fourth round of a grand slam for the fifth time since 2022 and the first time since last year’s French Open. Mertens is 4-1 in US Open third round matches. Mertens has won 4 of her last 6 matches on hard court.
Madison Keys vs Elise Mertens H2H
Keys has won 3 of the 4 matches against Mertens, but it was Mertens who won the most recent match in 2023 Cincinnati. Keys won the 2017 US Open, 2019 Australian Open and 2021 Wimbledon, all of which were decided in straight sets.
Madison Keys vs Elise Mertens Prediction
Mertens hasn’t been able to string together wins all season long, so it’s fair to doubt her here. Mertens hasn’t won 3 straight matches in over 7 months. Keys has looked sharp in her first two matches and is hitting her spots without racking up the unfired errors. If Keys is going to continue to play clean Tennis, she’s somebody that could be a dark horse title contender. Of course, Keys will have help from the home crowd as well.
I like Keys to cruise to the fourth round, and I’ll back her in straight sets to shave down the price.
