Ann Li vs Belinda Bencic prediction
We mentioned before how there is always a selection of big shocks at a major Grand Slam event like the US Open. We’ve already seen one notable seeded player and Grand Slam champion in Madison Keys depart and it would be no surprise if more were to come. Belinda Bencic’s first round win was relatively stress free, but she gave her opponent chances and if Ann Li earns the same opportunities, it wouldn’t be a shock if Li ended up taking them.
Bencic should come into this one as favourite, but it’s hard to forget how good Li was last time out, serving up ten aces and earning a whopping 16 break points. With the crowd likely behind her, backing the American offers genuine value and is to be seriously considered in this one.
