THE PREDICTION
Third-seed Alison Riske halted what was turning into quite the narrative at the Slovenian Open with a straight-sets victory over Slovenia’s rising star Kaja Juvan. World number 38 Riske has really grown into this campaign as she desperately tries to stay fit on the tour long enough to rediscover her best tennis but now she faces a great opportunity to win a third WTA title. The other story building at this tournament is the career-best form of Italy’s Jasmine Paolini, who came back from a set down to beat the second seed Yulia Putintseva on Saturday. World number 87 Paolini has been enjoying some good performances this season but there was little to suggest a first WTA final was around the corner. That energy will be a tough one to break down for Riske here but the 31-year-old has already proven she has a ruthless streak in handing Juvan a first-set bagel in the semi-finals. Take the American to win outright.
