Anna Kalinskaya vs Caty McNally prediction
Anna Kalinskaya has massively struggled with fitness issues this season, withdrawing from the Australian Open at the last moment before reaching the semi-finals of the Singapore Open as the top seed and retiring halfway through her match against Ann Li.
Her form since then had shown no sign of improvement, with first-round losses in Qatar, Dubai and Indian Wells. She momentarily stopped the rot with a second-round win in Miami against Moyuka Uchijima but then fell to defeat against fourth seed Jessica Pegula, despite taking the first set and losing the third on a tiebreak.
Qualifier Caty McNally earned a fine win over Anhelina Kalinina in the first round, roaring back from a set down and 4-1 down in the third set to win 4-6 6-1 6-4 against the much higher-ranked opponent.
Kalinskya has struggled for form and fitness so far this season but did give a hint of what she can offer in Miami with a close defeat to Pegula, who went on to make the final, and we think she’ll have enough for victory against the world number 397.
