Polina Kudermetova vs Jelena Ostapenko prediction
Former champion Jelena Ostapenko arrives at the scene of her greatest triumph in a very good moment.
The streaky Latvian won the title in Stuttgart and had a solid run to the round of 16 in Rome to suggest she will be a dark horse in the draw this year if her mojo is flowing.
The 21st seed faces 21-year-old Polina Kudermetova, who kicked off the year with a run to the final in Brisbane to propel her from outside the world’s top 100 and into the top 60.
Results have not been consistent since and the Russian’s hopes will come down to how consistent Ostapenko proves to be on the day.
If the 2017 champion keeps her unforced errors under control she will have far too many weapons for the underdog to cope with.
