THE PREDICTION
Former world number 21 Dayana Yastremska played one her best matches in recent times to oust in-form second seed Sorana Cirstea in three sets on Saturday. The 21-year-old only just escaped the war in her homeland, Ukraine, last weekend with her younger sister and there is more than a spot of fate around her in this Lyon Open final now. World number 64 Shuai Zhang beat Caroline Garcia in straight sets on Saturday to reach the final without dropping a set for a pretty surprising burst of form. The 33-year-old has spent much of the last two seasons finding huge success on the doubles tour alongside Sam Stosur, with whom she won the US Open back in September.
Shuai Zhang reached the quarter-finals of Wimbledon back in 2019 via a three-set victory over Yastremska, which remains the joint-highest round the Chinese star has reached in Women’s Singles. With Yastremska winning their first meeting the year before in the semi-finals of the Hong Kong Open that went on to become her first WTA tour title, this looks a tight call at one win apiece. Backing the Ukrainian to win outright here based on the sheer amount of bravery and determination she has shown this campaign is on the one hand sentimental but also reasonable given her performances. Take Yastremska to win, to send a little bit of light back home.
