THE PREDICTION
World number seven Coco Gauff has taken on an extra coach in Brad Gilbert in the hopes of ‘rebuilding’ her game to reach new heights in the sport. The 19-year-old’s forehand has been called into question over the last two seasons as a clear weakness in her otherwise electrifying game and she will be determined to impress whilst improving on the US hardcourt swing after losing in the first round at Wimbledon to an inspired Sofia Kenin. World number 204 Hailey Baptiste stunned the currently inexplicable Karolina Pliskova in three sets on Tuesday to back-up an excellent qualifying weekend and the 21-year-old stands a creditable chance at an even bigger upset now. Gauff has not played competitively in almost a month and there will be even more eyes on her in Washington after making her coaching move. The younger American should come through this first encounter but a one-off on Baptiste to earn at least a set on momentum alone could be the shrewd move here.
