Iga Swiatek vs Marketa Vondrousova prediction
Swiatek has been in imperious form throughout the clay-court season and will enter the match as the overwhelming favorite to win. Vondrousova is yet to take aset against the Pole and is bound to have a tough task ahead.
The World No. 1 has served six aces so far during the French Open while winning 111 out of 143 points on her first serve (77.6%). She has also produced 100 winners compared to 71 unforced errors.
The Pole's clay game is currently better than anyone else by some distance and her dominant win over Anastasia Potapova definitely served as a statement to the rest of the playing field.
Vondrousova doesn't have the most impressive numbers at the French Open when it comes to first serve. The Czech has won just 111 out of 174 points (63.7%) and has served 21 unforced errors in her four matches, something she cannot afford to do against someone of Swiatek's quality.
Vondrousova has had some impressive performances on clay and did well to reach the French Open quarterfinals after a string of disappointing exits in Madrid, Rome and Strasbourg. The Wimbledon cannot afford to give Swiatek even an inch and will have to produce as flawless a performance as she can in order to come out on top.
While Marketa Vondrousova is no slouch on clay, Iga Swiatek's performance has been on another level since her narrow escape against Naomi Osaka, and she should be able to maintain her 100% win record against the Czech to enter the French Open semifinals.
Pick: Swiatek to win in straight sets.
