KAROLINA MUCHOVA VS COCO GAUFF PREDICTION
Karolina Muchova has enjoyed an outstanding tournament so far in Beijing and now that she has made the final, she will be keen to see it through to the end and win here second WTA singles title. The Czech 28-year-old snapped Aryna Sabalenka’s stunning winning run and then beat Chinese number one Qinwen Zheng in front of the home fans to progress to the final.
The win over Qinwen Zheng was somewhat marred by injuries sustained by the Chinese star which impacted her midway through the first set and in the second. Taking nothing away from Muchova however as she has been superb in reaching this stage.
She meets Coco Gauff who can be proud of her displays this week. The 20-year-old showed great heart and grit in beating Paula Badosa in the semi-finals. After going a set down, she battled back and broke the will of the in-form Spaniard and thoroughly deserved the win.
Gauff has won both previous meetings against Muchova which both came back in 2023. It is fair to say Muchova is playing much better right now and will be a tougher challenge than she was in those matches. But we have to favour Gauff to win this. She is playing some really good and solid tennis at the moment and we just feel like she will have that edge in energy in the tank for this final.
