Tiantsoa Rakotomanga Rajaonah vs Katie Volynets prediction
Tiantsoa Rakotomanga Rajaonah overcame a slow start to continue her progress in Guangzhou. The 19-year-old improved as the match wore on as she defeated Polina Kudermetova 1-6 6-1 6-2. She won her first WTA title in Sao Paulo last month and is now just one match away from a third tour-level quarter-final.
She faces Katie Volynets in the round-of-16. The American also won her first-round match after going a set down. She beat Katarzyna Kawa 4-6 6-2 6-2 after two hours and two minutes. Volynets has not enjoyed the best of seasons and will hope to end the campaign strongly with a deep run here. Her best WTA result was a quarter-final in Auckland right at the start of 2025.
Rakotomanga Rajaonah is always improving and has the game to pose questions of Volynets over three sets. She has the momentum from her recent title win and will be confident of springing an upset in Guangzhou.
