Expert Betting Tips
Why Jessica Pegula should win: She has had plenty of experience and is more consistent compared to Diana Shnaider, who would want to use her power and aggressiveness to fluster Pegula. However, this would provide a test for Pegula to soak up the pressure and be smart about her tennis. In what could be termed a no-brainer, Pegula would probably be the favorite to come through, possibly in straight sets. But Shnaider might very well push a set to a tiebreak if she gets into a rhythm.
