WTA Charleston Day 3 Predictions

Emma Navarro vs Katie Volynets

Head-to-head: Volynets 1-0 Navarro

Volynets won the longest WTA match of the year in three hours and 43 minutes to in the previous round. She also saved two match points in the final-set tiebreak against Arantxa Rus. Volynets is an extremely fit player and I do not think recovering from Monday’s marathon will be an issue for her. But Navarro is still a pretty big favorite to progress. Despite Volynets’ excellent recent form, Navarro has also been playing very well and is more naturally comfortable on clay. The higher-ranked American to win a match with lots of long rallies.
