QinwenZheng - Liudmila Samsonova

Final. Bouzkova is slightly the favorite, which surprises me a bit. She easily passed her opponents, but let's say today Pliskova wasn't herself, making a lot of mistakes and simply giving up in the second set. Navarro had a longer journey to the final, but her opponents were also more challenging.

However, Navarro has some weapons on grass. Her stronger forehand leads to over winners, better net play, she knows how to create points, and she has a better Peru in her offense. On the other hand, Bouzkova relies more on stability, defense, waiting for mistakes, and breaking her opponent's rhythm. When two players of similar abilities meet on grass, the one with more free points often wins. And here, Navarro has the handicap advantage.

Moreover, Navarro's serve may not be elite, but she can collect short points well, attack on the second serve, and takes the ball early - all very valuable on grass. Bouzkova, on the other hand, prefers longer rallies at the baseline, which is not very convenient on grass.

When the match becomes nerve-wracking or goes into a tiebreaker, Navarro tends to take more risks and ends points herself, while Bouzkova often becomes more passive. So, in a tiebreaker, I would trust Navarro more.

If Navarro doesn't rush and make too many unforced errors, she has a great chance of winning her second title in the past month.
