Elena-Gabriela Ruse vs Emma Navarro prediction

Elena-Gabriela Ruse ended her long winless run in the first-round of the China Open against Rebecca Sramkova. Despite not having won a match since the semi-final of the Libema Open in June, the Romanian dominated from the start and wasn’t broken on serve as she wrapped up a 6-2 6-2 win, winning 78% of her first serve points in the process.

Emma Navarro is her second-round opponent. Her surprise defeat to Elisabetta Cocciaretto in the Billie Jean King Cup proved fatal, as Italy would go on to defeat the United States to retain their title. The American’s form has been average after a strong beginning to the season, and she has failed to make a quarter-final in over three months.

Ruse will take a lot of confidence from her first-round win and could push Navarro into a third set, but the American will be expected to come out on top. 

Elena-Gabriela Ruse vs Emma Navarro tip: Emma Navarro to win 2-1
