THE LOWDOWN

37-year-old veteran Kaia Kanepi is enjoying a remarkable renaissance over the last two seasons and she completed the set of Grand Slam quarter-finals this year by reaching the last eight at the Australian Open. The Estonian has reached a total of seven major quarter-finals, including here in 2010 and 2017, and she is always a serious threat to the top order on the biggest stages. Known as something of a giant-killer, Kanepi has knocked out the likes of Sofia Kenin, Angelique Kerber, Aryna Sabalenka and Garbine Muguruza across her last seven Grand Slam campaigns.

THE PREDICTION

World number 69 Tereza Martincova could be a challenging opener for Kanepi after the Czech took Anett Kontaveit to three sets at the Cincinnati Open last week and she looked in decent shape at the Granby Open before a loss to Diane Parry in the round of 16. However, the 27-year-old has never made it past the first round at the US Open, whilst Kanepi has won in the first round in each of her last 10 appearances here. Back the Estonian to win outright, probably in two.
