I am going over with the intention that Baptiste Hailey will take at least one set. Baptiste Hailey, 24-year-old American, is currently in the highest position on the WTA rankings, very dangerous, can make other players lose their patience with her game, has a decent serve, and good technique. In this tournament, the American has had three impressive victories against Paolini, Bencic, and Sabalenka, especially the great last victory against Sabalenka, where she came back from a loss in the first set.
Andreeva Mirra, a 19-year-old Russian, has been playing here without any problems so far, although Fernandez Leylah was a tougher opponent. However, I have noticed a lack of stability in finishing the points, as even when leading with a break, she cannot close out a set and starts making double faults or similar mistakes. I believe the American will not give up easily, unless there are any health issues, as the only past H2H record was a win for the Russian at Wimbledon last year.
