Ash Barty vs Victoria Azarenka: Prediction
Wimbledon champion Ash Barty will go in as the favorite to win but it won’t be a cakewalk for her. Azarenka is one of the most experienced players on tour and will push Barty to her limits. The Aussie will again rely on her baseline strokes and will be wary of Azarenka’s rock-solid defense. Expect a thrilling match with Barty coming out the victor.
Prediction: Barty to win in three sets.
