THE PREDICTION

19-year-old Giorgia Pedone was handed a wildcard to make her WTA tour debut on home clay at the Italian Open, with some recent encouraging results on the ITF and Futures circuit. The teenager brings a career-high WTA world ranking of 270th into Rome, where she will be backed to the hilt by a partisan home crowd, but 27-year-old Rebecca Sramkova qualified handily this week to look too strong. The Slovak is only nine places away from her own career-high of 111th and she impressed with a run to the second round at Indian Wells in March to bring recent Masters experience into the fray. Back Sramkova to win outright for caution’s sake.

TIP: REBECCA SRAMKOVA TO WIN
