\nWazniacki\u2019s power was too much for her opponent in the first round. If she brings the same level, Zarazua would find her too tasking to overcome.
\nPrediction: Wozniacki in 2<\/em><\/p>\n
\nCaroline Wozniacki is likely a bit past her Slam-winning days, but she’s still really good, especially on faster courts, as her game has become more aggressive over the years. She should be able to handle the earlier rounds as long as she can keep her consistency.
\nPrediction: Wozniacki in 2<\/em><\/p>\n
\nWozniacki only dropped one game in her opening round. Zarazua plays a similar brand of consistent and gritty tennis. But she simply does not do it as well as her illustrious opponent.
\nPrediction: Wozniacki in 2<\/em><\/p>\nDiana Shnaider vs Clara Tauson<\/h4>\n
\nClara Tauson has not won back to back matches since the French Open. Her task here is made more difficult by the fact that she\u2019s facing a player in Shnaider who has been consistent in that timeframe. The chances of an i you upset here are very unlikely.
\nPrediction: Shnaider in 2<\/em><\/p>\n
\nTauson is a future star who is making good strides this year. But Shnaider has found incredible form this season, and she’s going to be difficult to top.
\nPrediction: Shnaider in 2<\/em><\/p>\n
\nExpect plenty of powerful hitting in this one. Shnaider tends to implement her style more consistently, despite her young age. Tauson has not strung more than a few good performances together in a row this season.
\nPrediction: Shnaider in 3<\/em><\/p>\n
