Varvara Gracheva vs Jessica Pegula prediction
Jessica Pegula gets back to business looking to maintain some excellent momentum.
The American has reached at least the semi-final stage in her last six singles tournaments and will feel good about her chances against French underdog Varvara Gracheva.
The world number 73 reached the round of 16 in Doha and continued a run from qualifying by edging Rebecca Sramkova in three.
However, Pegula is another level of quality and consistency and also won their only previous meeting 7-5 7-6 in Cincinnati.
Gracheva will hope to be just as competitive this time, but it’s likely Jpeg will have all of the answers and she's a very good bet to get this done in two and in less games than six years ago.
