THE PREDICTION
World number eight Marketa Vondrousova beat Greet Minnen this time last week in Doha to snap a concerning six-match losing streak on tour but she lost just as quickly to in-form Anastasia Pavyuchenkova. The 24-year-old has always been a relatively streaky player but her current trough, following so much success last summer as the Wimbledon champion, is no doubt partly down to a debilitating shoulder issue that scuppered the end of her 2023.
World number 65 Peyton Stearns grabbed a brilliant three-set win over Russian wunderkind Mirra Andreeva on Sunday and she looks well capable of providing an upset here. The 22-year-old enjoyed a brilliant run to the round of 16 at the US Open last summer before a three-set defeat to Vondrousova, the Czech’s last win in 2023, but she trails 0-2 so far after becoming the first of seven vanquished at SW19. Vondrousova has a habit of bursting into form out of the blue to make predictions like this look especially foolish but, at this moment in time, Stearns looks able. Back the American to win at least a set to leave the victor up to chance.
TIP: PEYTON STEARNS TO WIN A SET
