Having very nearly made the final in Toronto last time out, losing in the semis, Coco Gauff gets down to business in Cincinnati on Sunday, when she'll take on world number 43 Liudmila Samsonova. The pair will meet for the fifth time as pros.
As is often the case, Coco Gauff is a heavy favorite here, and it's not surprising given that she's the world number four. However, she's up against a very decent player, who has been playing well of late. What's more, both of these players recently picked up the same result against Elena Rybakina, suggesting that there may be a slightly lesser gap in quality than the early odds would have us believe. On that basis, betting on Liudmila Samsonova to, at the very least, win one set offers value for money all the time odds of -105 are on offer.
