Boisson is very athletic and can run all over the court. She wont be standing or moving at a snails pace. Gauff will need to be at the top of her game for a shot to beat Boisson behind a hopefully loud rowdy obnoxious french home crowd for Boisson. Gauff is also known to fall flat in big matches. Boisson is on a mission that will be completed soon, grand slam victory and a rise from #361 to likely top 50 in the span of 1 tournament. Currently #65

Here's an excellent write-up about Boisson from another site posted by a knowledgeable French fan. I'm on the Frenchie to win a set, and will deal with any potential SU bets live.
------------------
Boisson is such a conundrum.
What's clear is that she watched a lot of tennis when she was out for so long recovering from her ACL injury, because she has borrowed from so many players, which is why her opponents, who have never seen her before, never mind faced her, are completely bamboozled.
- A consistently powerful serve like Osaka/Sabalenka/Keys fastest serves - A serve placement like Osaka/Serena - She is faster than all her opponents when moving sideways on the court, even having the time to do a large final steadying step as she arrives to hit the ball - A looping forehand à la Swiatek when she wants to loop, which is often - Long sliced backhands à la Krejcíková - And, uniquely to her, searing flat forehands or backhands bazookas when she wants to do those
In short, she's totally unreadable. She can look like an amateur when merely doing a backhand push/block, and then bamboozle or hit past you on the next four points.
She is here to stay : she is our first woman player we have had in a long time who looks like she plays a modern tennis game. I didn't know her until she beat Jacquemot in the second round, one of our other young players, but I have watched all her games since, stunned. After she beat Pegula I knew she'd beat Andreeva as, unfortunately for her, Andreeva is too much of a hot head still and our supporters were bound to get to her, and they did. And, after her horror show of nerves in the Rome final against Paolini, and in the first two sets today against Maddison Keys, I believe Coco Gauff will go the same way as Andreeva. And Boisson can definitely beat either Iga or Aryna, so, unbelievably, we are looking at a potential French Grand Slam winner on Saturday, 25 years after our last win with Mary Pierce : Lois Boisson doing an Emma Raducanu.

not sure why saba is favored other than she does know how to beat iga, but saba hasnt looked good for a while, not sure what happened with zheng, it literally looked fixed. zheng was rolling and out of nowhere just decided she didnt know how to play tennis anymore. not many can even keep up with the first few balls of iga since she's so aggressive, there are few and those few know how to beat low iq iga and that is simply hit down the lines. iga isnt too bright and doesnt have much respect for most of her opponents since she dominates 95% of them. she really doesnt adjust much of her game winning or losing. saba just not in good form though but again she knows how to beat iga but this version shouldnt be able to do it. youll see her go down the lines to win easy points though iga will stand in one spot expecting cross court returns every time like an idiot.

Sabs not in good form? A little far fetched?

not to beat the form iga has shown recently nope. saba has been winning a lot but she's not in top form by any stretch its just that when you're at her level she doesn't need to be in top form to beat most of her opponents. it'll take iga totally wigging out today for saba to win.

So Sabs hasn't shown form recently winning all those titles this year? I don't care who wins either way as I have no investmentin this. But your analysis doesn't make much sense.

I guess we're supposed to pay no attention to the fact that Sabs has been BY FAR the most dominant player in 2025 as well as over the past 12 months. BY FAR
If anyone has been in bad form it would probably be the player who hasn't won a title since last year's RG and struggled most of the year up until this tournament. She's definitely found some form so far here though. But still extremely hard to make an argument that anyone's form has even been close to Sabs and that has consistently been the case for a year now.

nailed it. from iga will be standing still waiting for cross court shots while saba will be going down the line, happened over and over to the only way saba wins if iga totally wigs out, that happened in the 3rd set, iga only won 6 pts in the entire set.
