Renata Zarazua vs Ashlyn Krueger Prediction

Ashlyn Krueger, a rising young star of USA Tennis is a good fit for this tournament, as her game transfers well to the hard court. A strong server and fast mover up to the net, the 20-year-old should see this contest as a good barometer as to where she’s currently at right now when considering Renata Zarazua’s pedigree.

The Mexican is a solid performer but has never cracked the top 50 and is the kind of opponent that Krueger needs to win against in the early rounds of a WTA tournament to take the next big step in her career, particularly at a home tournament although Zarazua is likely to garner plenty of her own support in Miami from the Latino community who turn out for this tournament.

We could be in for a real thriller here as this contest has the potential to go either way, depending on which player can find the best game and sustain it for a longer period of time. Regardless of who comes out on top, backing a three-set-match warrants serious consideration.

Renata Zarazua vs Ashlyn Krueger Tip: Three total sets
