Sonay Kartal takes on fifth seed Elina Svitolina next, hoping to continue with her exciting run at the Wuhan Open. Meeting for the second time this year, the two will square off in the quarterfinals. With two wins in as many meetings with Kartal, our prediction backs Svitolina to progress.
Svitolina defeated the wildcard Hanyu Guo in straight sets to progress to this round. The Ukrainian is among the favourites to win the Wuhan title.
As a five-time WTA 1000 champion, Svitolina has won two titles this term and has reached at least the semis in five other events. The world number six, who defeated Kartal on her way to winning the Auckland Open, has compiled a 50-16 record.
Sonay Kartal has been terrific this week and will approach this fixture brimming with confidence. The Brit hasn’t lost a set in three rounds. In her last two matches, she has registered back-to-back bagels.
Kartal dropped just two games in the last round as she made light work of 15th seed Jasmine Paolini. A winner of 17 matches this season, all on hard courts, Kartal has shot up more than 50 places in the live ranking.
She is now ranked 113th. Kartal returned to the tour in late September after a six-month injury layoff.
