Zeynep Sonmez vs Elvina Kalieva prediction

Zeynep Sonmez overcame a mid-match hiccup to see off Cadence Brace and the round of 16 in Memphis.

The Turkish star recovered to post a 6-4 3-6 6-3 victory over the Canadian and will now take on America’s Elvina Kalieva, who took down Brace’s compatriot Katherine Sebov 6-1 7-6.

That was only the world number 132’s second tour-level win of the season and it’s likely that she will find it too much of a mountain to climb against fourth seed, Sonmez.
