THE PREDICTION

26-year-old Sara Sorribes Tormo came back from a set down to beat fourth seed Ekaterina Alexandrova to the Cleveland title on Saturday, her second career title and a first since returning from a long injury lay-off this year. The Spaniard will move back up to around world number 55th for her efforts in Cleveland and impressive results over Alexandrova, Veronika Kudermetova and former US Open champion Sloane Stephens this week suggest she could be one to watch for a round of 16 place at least in New York. That being said, the fast turnaround from title to first round could rear its ugly head here against world number 28 Anhelina Kalinina. The 26-year-old has struggled to match the intensity that saw her reach a Masters final for the first time in Rome back in May but a recent three-set defeat to Ons Jabeur is proof that there is a high level bubbling under the surface. This match looks a real coupon buster so leave it out of an accumulator. Back Sorribes Tormo to earn at least a set on a five-match winning streak to leave the victor up to chance.
