For those watching stateside, late on Tuesday evening, assuming there are no delays, one of the home-court contingent will be in action at the WTA event in Seoul. Dayeon Back will take on Maya Joint. After defeating a higher-ranked opponent in the first round, can the South Korean player cause another shock? To do that she'll need to defeat a player who reached the semi-finals of this event a year ago.
Even at odds of -189, which may seem skinny at first glance, Maya Joint looks a decent bet to defeat her South Korean opponent in straight sets. The Aussie could easily be the subject of stronger market support. She reached the semis of this event last year, winning her first three matches of the tournament in straight sets, showing a clear liking for the conditions. In contrast, Dayeon Back went out in the first round.

Our Dayeon Back vs Maya Joint Prediction
After three losing three matches on the spin without winning a set, Dayeon Back, despite playing on home soil, was not expected to defeat Yue Yuan during the first round, and it's fair to assume that she'll be riding high after that seemingly unlikely win. However, let's not be fooled by that effort, which will have taken plenty out of her. This is a much tougher task.
Maya Joint should now be able to step on the gas after that first-round win, and if she can regain the form she showed at this event a year ago, then she can make light work of winning without dropping a set.
Our Dayeon Back vs Maya Joint Pick: Maya Joint to Win 2-0.
