THE PREDICTION

18-year-old Coco Gauff is on the precipice of breaking the top 10 on tour for a first time after a hugely impressive three-set victory over recent Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina on Wednesday. The current world number 12 finished runner-up to world number one Iga Swiatek at Roland-Garros back in June and that alongside results like her victory over Naomi Osaka last week are further proof of the one direction she is heading. World number six Aryna Sabalenka beat Sara Sorribes Tormo in straight sets on Wednesday but 4 aces to 18 double faults is still the headline to her performances, with 43 double faults made across two matches last week at the Silicon Valley Classic. Whilst the 24-year-old is playing hard enough in the points she makes to beat players outside of the top 40, Gauff should be too steep a climb at this concerning point of her career. There is always the chance that the former world number two suddenly clicks into gear, though, so backing Gauff, who leads this head-to-head 2-1, to win outright looks the sensible call.
