THE PREDICTION

World number 34 Xinyu Wang overcame home hopeful Olivia Gadecki in three sets on Tuesday to bounce back from a tough defeat to near-namesake Xiyu Wang last week in Auckland. The 22-year-old found the form of her young career on the late hardcourt swing last summer, reaching the round of 16 at the US Open before a tight defeat to Karolina Muchova, but a defeat to Lin Zhu in the semi-final of the Japan Women’s Open was symptomatic of some avoidable losses in pressure situations. 25-year-old Yue Yuan brought a career-high WTA world ranking of 73rd into Hobart after ending 2023 with some strong work on the ITF circuit and she stunned Sloane Stephens in three sets on Tuesday to build on some excellent results in qualifying. Wang has a big future in the sport but she has not entirely convinced so far this season. Back Yuan to earn at least a set as the form player to leave the result up to chance.

TIP: YUE YUAN TO WIN A SET
