Cori Gauff is up to second in the live rankings. The American takes on the eighth-seeded Qinwen Zheng in the last four of the clay court Italian Open. Can the American beat hher Chinese opponent. Heres our match prediction.
It's been an excellent start to the clay court season for Cori Gauff. The 21-year-old is one match away from a second successive final. In Madrid, Gauff lost to Aryna Sabalenka but the world number one has already been beaten by her opponent in this semi-final.
Gauff has only won one WTA Tour singles title on this surface and that was in Italy four years ago. This tournament has the fourth seed only lose one set and that was the first she played. The last eight saw her defeat Mirra Andreeva in straight sets.
Qinwen Zheng is eighth in the live rankings but can climb a place if winning this match. The 22-year-old will need to beat her opponent for the first time. Both of their previous meetings have been lost by Zheng, one on clay in this tournament last year.
The Chinese player is in her first semi-final in this tournament after two previous last eight appearances. Zheng has reached the last four wiithout dropping a set. We feel Gauff is in top form and can win this match.
