Peyton Stearns vs Yafan Wang prediction
Peyton Stearns is not in the best of form ahead of the US Open, with her ranking dropping to 53 in the world. The 23-year-old ended her four match losing streak in Cincinnati but did not go any further than the second round after a three set defeat to Anna Kalinskaya, with Stearns fading away in the decider. Her best results of the season took place during the clay court season, with semi-final and round-of-16 finishes in Rome and Madrid respectively.
Her opponent Yafan Wang is currently ranked 194 in the world. She advanced to the main draw after wins over Aleksandra Krunic and Nuria Parrizas-Diaz in qualifying. The Chinese player has suffered from a number of injuries over the past year, and missed over six months of the season after losing her second-round match at the Australian Open.
Stearns leads the head-to-head 2-0 and has not dropped a set against Wang. The American won their last match 6-4 6-3 just over a week ago in the first-round of Cincinnati. Another straight sets victory in favour of Stearns is highly probable.
