Madison Keys, while not having enjoyed enormous success, has produced consistent results this year. On the hard courts at Cincinnati, Keys reached the semifinals and also made the Last 4 at the Australian Open at the beginning of the year. Other results such as winning the WTA 250 title in Adelaide and a quarterfinal finish at Indian Wells ensured Keys comes into San Diego as a top 20 player.

Meanwhile, Daria Kasatkina recently won a hard court title in Granby, Canada and reached the semifinals of Roland Garros earlier this year. She also made the semis at Rome, Sydney and Melbourne. Such impressive results catapulted Kasatkina to a personal best ranking of No.9 in the world in August this year and she is currently ranked 11th.

Despite Keys having the home advantage, Kasatkina is the stronger player of the two based on current form and should carry over the confidence of recently winning a title on a similar hard-court surface.

Keys does have the ability to match Kasatkina from the back of the court but unfortunately this is one of the Russian’s main strengths too. Although Keys will have the home crowd rooting for her, judging from her previous match-play, she can get demotivated easily when not able to dominate opponents during matches.

Prediction: Kasatkina to win in straight sets.
