THE PREDICTION

27-year-old Ekaterina Makarova will set a new career-high WTA world ranking of around 183rd after beating home hopeful Patricia Tig in three sets, backing up a similar result over Kateryna Baindl. The Russian won an ITF title in Romania late last month to bring some confidence into qualifying last weekend but this looks one step too far against an improving Eva Lys. 21-year-old Lys came back from a set down to beat Jaqueline Cristian on Thursday, backing up a huge upset over top seed Sorana Cirstea, but she admitted to struggling with her fitness after the match to throw a little doubt. The world number 133 should be easing past Makarova based on her week so far but take Lys to come through outright for caution’s sake.
