 Kudermetova looks in sublime form in this tournament. In the Semis against her Spanish opponent, Badosa, she hit 28 winners and flattened her opponent in straight sets. Kovinic has looked better as she has advanced in the rounds, but might come up a little short against the Russian in the Finals. 

Match Prediction: Veronika Kudermetova will beat Danka Kovinic in three sets.
