Our Lanlana Tararudee vs Kaitlin Quevedo Prediction
The Difference Maker: Tararudee thrives on the hard court. The Thai has won 172 matches on this surface, while the clay-court grinder Quevedo has earned 50 hard-court wins in her career.
Moreover, Tararudee wins a bulk of these hard-court matches by protecting her service games. She is winning 70.6 percent of her first serves, and the numbers tend to go up when she’s playing on medium-fast courts, similar to the court conditions in Ningbo.
What to Expect: Tararudee holds most, if not all, of her serves to produce a straight-set win over Quevedo. Tararudee’s serve-plus-one tennis presents tactical problems for Quevedo, who likes to grind down her opponents in long rallies. Tararudee is also converting 44 percent of break chances on hard courts this year, underscoring the Thai’s ability to seize crucial break points in a match. Also, Quevedo has been away from the tour for almost a month, which means she might not be as sharp as she was during her run at Sao Paulo.
Fearless Forecast: Lanlana Tararudee wins 6-4, 7-5
Our betting prediction for Kaitlin Quevedo vs. Lanlana Tararudee: Lanlana Tararudee 2-0 sets
