Our Lanlana Tararudee vs Kimberly Birrell Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Kimberly Birell outduels Lanlana Tararudee
This is going to be a close one, but my money is on Birell to gut out a win in this intriguing semifinal pairing. Tararudee has been smoking hot in Austin, ousting several solid names on tour, including the world’s No.86 Anastasia Zakharova. But to advance into the final of this WTA 125 event, she must take her level of play to new heights against Birell, who outlasted McCartney Kessler in the quarters.
Tararudee has only three top-100 wins in her career, while Birell has lost only once against a player ranked outside the WTA top-100 this year.
