Lin Zhu vs Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva Prediction & Picks - WTA Mutua Madrid Open
by Edgar Jibran | in Tennis Picks
The first round of the WTA 1000 tournament in Madrid has already given some surprises, and next Wednesday, April 24th, Victoria Jimenez is looking forward to stun Lin Zhu during her second WTA tournament in the 2024 season for this young talented player that was invited as a Wild Card for this competition.
On the one hand, Lin Zhu didn’t have a good start of the season on hard surface, where she was only able to battle for the Hua Hin WTA 250 reaching the final but failing after a 3 sets defeat against Diana Shnaider (6-3, 2-6, 6-1). However, the Chinese player is on a very good shape after the streak of 3 consecutive victories she got during the Billie Jean King Cup, but it is important to remark that the players she faced were not even in the top 650 of the WTA ranking.
On the other hand, Victoria Jimenez is a very promising youngster player of only 18 years old that had an optimistic start of the clay season, reaching the round of 16 of the La Bisbal D’Emporda Challenger and the semifinals of the W35 ITF Santa Margherita, so she looks ready for this big challenge in Madrid, where she can write her name with gold letters in front of the whole World against a top 60 WTA ranked player as Zhu.
