THE PREDICTION
Former world number 22 Irina-Camelia Begu returns to the WTA tour for the first time since suffering an early exit at the US Open last August, qualifying for the main draw in Madrid on a protected ranking. The 33-year-old is at het best on clay, although she has impressed across surfaces in recent seasons, but it remains to be seen how she fares in her first match in seven months against up-and-coming Linda Fruhvirtova. World number 146 Fruhvirtova has struggled to find any sort of rhythm this season, bringing only a two-match losing streak into Madrid but failing to qualify for four recent tournaments, to suggest Begu can make an immediate impact here. The Romanian made the quarter-finals this time last season but back her to earn at least a set this time around as the likelier of two rather out-of-form players.
TIP: IRINA-CAMELIA BEGU TO WIN A SET
