Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-6.5) for Swiatek – 2.00.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 18.5 – 1.81.
For Kasatkina, reaching the semi-finals of Roland Garros was a huge success. However, Daria has an uncomfortable opponent ahead, who is in great shape. Throughout her career, Daria has been failing to play matches against physically powerful opponents, irrespective of the type of surface. Iga is no exception in this respect. Moreover, Iga is excellent on the backhand.
In three head-to-head encounters this year, Swiatek confidently defeated Kasatkina with a difference of not less than seven games.
Swiatek seems to have simply forgotten how to lose. Not so long ago, Iga Swiatek suffered from psychological problems, but now that story is in the past.
Iga has been #1 in women’s tennis for some time now and her reaching the semi-finals of Roland Garros is something to take for granted.
At the current tournament, Swiatek had only one match when she had to get a little nervous. In her fourth-round match against Zheng Qinwen, she lost the first set but eventually got her revenge with a score of 6-7, 6-0, 6-2.
