Maja Chwalinska vs Qinwen Zheng prediction
Maja Chwalinska made it through French Open qualifying at the fourth time of asking with the Pole winning all six sets she contested.
The majority of the 24-year-old's career titles, which have come at lower-ranked tournaments, have come on clay, so she should at least be competitive here against her higher-ranked opponent.
An elbow injury has stalled 23-year-old Qinwen Zheng's career over the last year, with the once fourth-ranked player in the world now outside the top 50, but given her talent and age, you feel she will surely soar back up the rankings sooner or later.
Zheng, who reached the quarter-finals here last year, has shown some glimpses of her top form in the clay swing and we see her having too much for Chwalinska here.
