Our Xinyu Wang vs Elise Mertens Prediction
This will be a mad dash toward the end, but I give the edge to the more seasoned player in Mertens. The Belgian has held 90 percent of her serves and was broken once in the previous round. Wang is sure to present troubles as she’s also hitting the ball well throughout her campaign. However, I really think Mertens can pull off a win by digging deep from her bag of tricks and relying on her playing experience at this tournament stage. Mertens has a 25-21 card in the semifinal throughout his career and has 8 WTA titles, including five on hard surfaces. Our betting prediction for Elise Mertens vs. Xinyu Wang: Elise Mertens will win.
