Ahn&#8217;s second-round opponent will be another surprise: 17-year-old World No. 438 Maria Camila Osorio Serrano. Who will advance on Day 3? Let&#8217;s find out.<\/p>\n<h2>WTA Bogota Day 3 Predictions<\/h2>\n<h3>Maria Camila Osorio Serrano vs Kristie Ahn<\/h3>\n<p>Ahn&#8217;s victory over Ostapenko was incredible. Yes, the former French Open champion collapsed, but Ahn was right there to take advantage. Osorio Serrano did something similar in her first-round match on Day 1. She clearly wasn&#8217;t quite as good as Conny Perrin, but the Colombian teenager took full advantage of an opponent who was struggling with her own game. Perrin double-faulted and hit herself out of the tournament, and I&#8217;m looking for the local Osorio Serrano to make quite a run out of this. The teenager also has a full day&#8217;s rest, while Ahn had to fight Ostapenko into the night.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Osorio Serrano in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>Shelby Rogers vs Astra Sharma<\/h3>\n<p>The Australian Sharma won a National Championship as part of the Vanderbilt tennis team four years ago, and is finally making a decent transition to the pros. Rogers might be a more common name and more accomplished on tour, but watch out for Sharma. She is finally playing like a professional and could find herself deep in International-level tournaments for years to come.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Sharma in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"2I_QRPnJRetly7bAH0AS8A\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1089439556\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'2I_QRPnJRetly7bAH0AS8A',sig:'AVh7cFnZj_cQ3QdBO0j3h1oxhg5UcN_d4fHbUlVQZ0Y=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1089439556',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Ana Bogdan vs Sara Sorribes Tormo<\/h3>\n<p>For some reason I just can&#8217;t get excited about this matchup. It actually has some real potential, and Bogdan is much better on clay than people give her credit for. Still, it&#8217;s hard to pick against any Spaniard on clay, really.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Sorribes Tormo in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"9SGXNd35QoZr98jqCUtrfA\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1082150766\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'9SGXNd35QoZr98jqCUtrfA',sig:'cB1oL8W_LS7yAANdGvAwI2DFWegiwlpS7huOf-qwsrY=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1082150766',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Amanda Anisimova vs Varvara Lepchenko<\/h3>\n<p>Anisimova is clearly a future star, but she doesn&#8217;t yet seem to be comfortable on clay. She has more talent than Lepchenko&#8211;more than enough to make up for the age difference. What she doesn&#8217;t have, though, is enough experience on clay. It will be a minor upset, but the elder American will be better on the surface.
