Emma Raducanu vs Xinyu Wang prediction
Emma Raducanu will look to set aside a back issue when she meets Xinyu Wang in the first round at the French Open.
The Brit struggled with an injury in the latter stages of her 4-6 6-1 6-3 defeat to Danielle Collins in Strasbourg and there will be question marks over her ability to sustain her fitness throughout this opener.
The 22-year-old has been enjoying a positive year and has also shown signs of improving on clay with a strong run to the round of 16 in Rome.
Wang made a surge to the last four in Singapore but has largely struggled this year with just six wins on tour so far. The 23-year-old Chinese star is ranked at 42 in the world and did beat Raducanu in their only previous meeting in Linz four years ago.
This will be Wang’s fifth tour-level match on clay this year and she’s only managed the one victory.
It may well come down to how fit Raducanu is, but if her movement is fine she will feel this is a winnable match.
