THE PREDICTION
16-year-old Alina Korneeva will set a new career-high WTA world ranking of around 163rd after overcoming Valeria Savinykh in three sets on Wednesday, backing up a solid qualifying run. The teenager could meet fellow 16-year-old rising Russian star Mirra Andreeva in the quarter-finals for what would be a fascinating rematch of the Australian Open Girls’ final, where Korneeva came back from a set down to win, but Linda Fruhvirtova stands in the way as a relative tour veteran at 18 years old. The Czech came back from a set down to beat 21-year-old Peyton Stearns on Tuesday to look the solid favourite in this first encounter with Korneeva but having to play the elder role could be a difficult change of pace. Fruhvirtova’s form has really picked up in recent weeks, after a poor summer, and she can be backed to spoil the party with an outright win.
