THE PREDICTION
World number six Simona Halep played well to beat an impressive lucky loser in Anastasia Potapova so soon after the emotional release of winning her first prestigious tournament since injury. The 30-year-old missed the best part of a year, exacerbated by the covid-19 pandemic, soon after winning Wimbledon in 2019 but she proved some doubters wrong on Sunday by winning a seventh Masters title in Toronto. Safely installed back inside the WTA’s top 10, the Romanian will have designs on the US Open next month as one of the, perhaps deceptively, best hard-courters on tour and she holds a healthy 3-0 lead over Veronika Kudermetova after their most recent match saw her lift the Melbourne 1 title back in January. World number 20 Kudermetova has finished runner-up on three occasions this season after also losing the Dubai Tennis Championships final to Jelena Ostapenko and the Istanbul Open to the aforementioned Potapova and she is no pushover.
Halep’s recent matches, despite ending in victories, have not been totally convincing and that makes an outright pick the sensible one on this occasion.
