Simona Halep vs Coco Gauff Prediction:
Halep may be ranked lower than Gauff at the moment, but she will start the match as the favorite. Halep seems to be in peak condition. The Romanian’s strong groundstrokes, paired with her quickness and return game, make her a difficult opponent. Gauff, on the other hand, should not be written out based on her claycourt record last season. Gauff plays aggressive tennis and is able to alter her game to keep her opponents off balance. Halep seems to be in good form at the moment, and although Gauff will put up a fight, it is unlikely to be enough to prevent the Romanian from progressing to the quarterfinals.
Prediction: Simona Halep will win the match
