THE PREDICTION
24-year-old Maria Carle will set a career-high WTA world ranking of 74th after upsetting an exhausted Emma Raducanu on Wednesday. The Argentine is yet to drop a set this week, from qualifying through to the second round, but she looks to have missed the window for upsetting world number 19 Veronika Kudermetova as the Russian has improved significantly in recent weeks. 27-year-old Kudermetova reached back-to-back semi-finals in Madrid and Rome this time last season before briefly going off the boil on the late hardcourt swing, although she found a brief respite to claim her most prestigious WTA title in Tokyo. A poor start to 2024 looks on the mend now she is back on clay, with the likes of Maria Sakkari in Charleston and eventual champion Elena Rybakina in Stuttgart needed to oust her. Carle has nothing to lose in this biggest day of her career so far but back Kudermetova to turn the screw in two.
TIP: VERONIKA KUDERMETOVA TO WIN 2-0
