KORPATSCH TO BEAT SIEGMUND @ 4.05

Both players in excellent form very much at home on clay, Siegmund is rightly favourite and will be hard to beat but her price is far too short.

LARSSON TO BEAT PUTINTSEVA @ 2.37

Larsson is a solid all rounder, Putintseva will be very weak on serve and Larsson’s consistency should prove too much here

LEPCHENKO TO BEAT VICKERY @ 2.20

Lepchenko leads the head to head 2-0 and has only ever lost 6 games in those meetings so I suggest there is something that Vickery does not like about this match up, possible the flat hitting of her opponent and the fact she has a losing record against left handers

NARA TO BEAT TOMLJANOVIC @ 2.62

Nara has a better return of serve and Tomljanovic can be a little one dimensional, she relies on her serve a lot and Nara has a return game that will cause problems for her opponent here.

NARA 59.6% 42.1% 32-21(200-150)

TOMLJANOVIC 59.4% 38.4% 26-14(134-93)

GIBBS TO BEAT CORNET @ 3.40

Gibbs is very consistent if unspectacular but I am happy to go with consistency at these odds against Cornet who is crazily unpredictable  and should never be this short a price

CORNET 61% 42% 18-14(158-129)

GIBBS 64.2% 39.7% 19-19(187-124)

BLINKOVA TO BEAT LAPKO @ 2.10

Blinkova has a better record on hard courts, hold serves more often and breaks more regularly so no reason she should not be favourite here.

LAPKO 65.7% 36.5% 7-9(36-20)

DAVIS TO BEAT MARTIC @ 4.0

Davis is similar to Gibbs in that she is very consistent but does lack power, that consistency could prove too much for Martic who again can be very unpredictable

KIICK TO BEAT STOSUR @ 2.37

Stosur is going downhill fast as shown by her hold and return percentage this season compared to her career and Kiick is in good form at the minute.

PERA TO BEAT LINETTE @ 2.0

Pera can overpower her opponent here she strikes the ball harder than Linette and I suspect she will overpower her opponent
