Linda Noskova vs Elena Rybakina prediction
Linda Noskova advanced to the semi-finals of the Pan Pacific Open as her opponent Anna Kalinskaya had to retire at the start of the first set due to injury. Noskova was leading 6-0 1-0 at the time. This is the fifth semi-final of the season for the Czech, who has made strides this year as she reached her first WTA 1000 final last month in Beijing and has reached her highest ranking of 17 in the world.
Elena Rybakina secured the final spot in the Tour Finals after making the last four with a straight sets win over Victoria Mboko. She broke at the start of the match to go 2-0 up and that was only break of serve in the match as she won 6-3 7-6.
The head-to-head has been complete domination in favour of Rybakina. She has won their three meetings without the drop of a set. Rybakina beat Noskova last month in the third-round of the Wuhan Open.
Rybakina has not dropped a single set this week and is on a six match winning streak after her success in Ningbo. Her game looks strong, especially her serve, and she will be heavily favoured to win.
