THE PREDICTION
World number 10 Caroline Garcia found her lesser-spotted brand of lights-out tennis at the US Open earlier this month before coming up short, and suddenly out-of-sorts, against eventual runner-up Ons Jabeur in the semi-finals. The 28-year-old enjoyed an 11-match winning streak after claiming the third Masters title of her career at the Cincinnati Masters last month and she has, remarkably, won three titles this season on all three surfaces. It remains to be seen how the former world number four fares in her first match back on tour but world number 28 Shuai Zhang is a seriously tough opener in Tokyo, particularly after conceding just three games to Mai Hontama in the first round. The pair share a finely-poised head-to-head record at 2-2 after Garcia beat the Chinese at Wimbledon back in July but Shuai Zhang won their hardcourt meeting this season on her way to the Lyon Open title. Back Garcia to win at least a set as the likelier of two capable victors as the Frenchwoman is one of the more unpredictable players on tour.
