THE PREDICTION

World number 12 Coco Gauff got a promising US Open campaign underway in comprehensive fashion with a straight-sets victory over Leolia Jeanjean. The 18-year-old reached her first Grand Slam final in June, finishing runner-up to Iga Swiatek, and she has lost to the eventual champions in two of her last five tournaments – with her most recent exit in Cincinnati down to an injury. Remarkably, world number 101 Elena-Gabriela Ruse had surgery on her hand earlier this month and she not only returned ahead of schedule but beat in-form Daria Saville from a set down on Monday. The Romanian is at her best on clay, on which she won her maiden WTA title last season at the Hamburg Open, but she lost to Coco Gauff in three sets in their first meeting just two months ago at Wimbledon and it is likelier to come a little easier to the American with the home crowd fully behind her. Take Gauff to win in straight sets.
