THE PREDICTION
28-year-old Jessica Pegula is so close to breaking the top 10 for a first time after finishing runner-up to Ons Jabeur in her first Masters final at the Madrid Open on Saturday. The American will set a new career-high ranking of 11th after the feat with her recent form seeing her reach the semi-finals of the Miami Open last month before defeat to eventual champion Iga Swiatek and she will be a serious threat to the title here. 23-year-old Liudmila Samsonova will also set a new career-high WTA world ranking of 25th after recent strong form on tour saw her take a rare set from Swiatek in the semi-finals of the Stuttgart Open last month. The Russian fares a solid chance of upsetting the odds with a quick turnaround for Pegula from disappointment in Madrid but the American is a consummate professional on the precipice of breaking the top 10 and she should be motivated enough to win at least a set here as the likelier of two capable victors.
