Iga Swiatek vs Daria Kasatkina prediction
Iga Swiatek lay down a serious statement of intent with a demolition of Janice Tjen.
The three-time champion kicked off her bid for a fourth Doha crown with a 6-0 6-3 win over the Indonesian.
The Pole now faces Daria Kasatakina for a seventh time after the Aussie continued a sudden uptick in form by upsetting 16th seed Elise Mertens 6-4 6-0.
The world number 61 won her first ever clash with Swiatek on the grass of Eastbourne in 2021 but has since lost six in a row without claiming a set.
Iga posted a 6-3 6-0 victory at this very tournament in 2022 and given the history of the match-up, form and the top seed’s love for this tournament, it’s surely a matter of how many games Daria can muster.
