Veronika Kudermetova vs Elise Mertens Prediction & Picks - Hobart International

 by Lou Aguila | in Tennis Picks

Kudermetova and Elise Mertens will battle for a semifinal spot at the 2025 Hobart International on Thursday. Kudermetova clinched a quarterfinal slot after vanquishing Maria Carmelo Osorio Serano of Colombia 6-4 6-1. The Russian punished her foe by winning 70 percent of her firsts serves and converting 5 of 13 breakpoint chances. Kudermetova can equal the number of her semifinal appearance last season with a win over Mertens in their round-of-8 showdown. Mertens earned her spot in the Hobart International quarters following 6-4 6-3 win over Renata Zarazua of Mexico on Wednesday. Mertens won 67 points and captured 7 breakpoints to get the edge in a competitive two-set match with the Mexican. Mertens, who reached the semis of the Australian Open in 2018, is the No.2 seed in Hobart.
