THE PREDICTION

Former world number 19 Donna Vekic spent much of the last few seasons in the wilderness but after bursting into form at the San Diego Open late last year her victory over 19th seed Liudmila Samsonova on Thursday was not the upset it looked on paper. The current world number 64 conceded just three games to Samsonova in a blistering performance that saw her claim the last seven games in a row, in keeping with her level in San Diego last year when she beat four top players before a three-set loss in the final to Iga Swiatek. World number 75 Nuria Parrizas-Diaz is enjoying the best run of her late-blooming career so far after stunning the 14th seed, Beatriz Haddad-Maia, in the first round and blasting past a good player in Anastasia Potapova. The Spaniard’s grit should not be underestimated here but beating Vekic in the Croat’s current mood would still be a fair surprise. Back Vekic to win at least a set inside an accumulator or outright on its own.
