Cori Gauff vs Amanda Anisimova : Prediction

Both of them have a similar record on Clay in their short career so far. Cori is 22-12 whereas Amanda is 33-15 on Clay. However, Cori stands a better chance to open the account in their head-to-head clash looking at her form throughout the season. Nevertheless, it will be an exciting clash between the two youngesters.
Prediction: Cori Gauff to win in 3-sets.
