Diana Shnaider vs Anastasia Potapova prediction
Anastasia Potapova was too strong for Venus Williams in Washington.
The Austrian posted a routine 6-3 6-3 win over the veteran superstar to tee up a clash with fourth seed Diana Shnaider.
Similarly to world number 27 Potapova, Diana has struggled for wins since her impressive run at Roland-Garros but will feel she has the more powerhouse game in these conditions.
The match-up is tied at 1-1 but the Russian won in straight sets in their only previous clash on hardcourt in Brisbane earlier this year.
Potapova will be as feisty as ever but if Shnaider’s confidence is still intact, she should have the game-plan to win here.
