Jasmine Paolini (WTA No. 5) gets to Beijing after winning a major WTA 1000 title in Rome and several good hard-court matches this season; her YTD W/L on the WTA profile is very positive (see WTA for the updated count). In Beijing she has been effective — beating Anastasija Sevastova 6-1, 6-3, then Sofia Kenin 6-3, 6-0 and recently Marie Bouzkova 6-2, 7-5 to the quarterfinal stage — victories that confirm she is progressing through the draw without losing any sets.
Paolini’s tennis is dominated by her typical high quality, heavy groundstrokes, a forehand with a very short take-back that is hard hitting for short balls, and great point construction: she makes her opponents work for every shot rather than giving them easy points. Her serve is good rather than spectacular, and she makes matches long for the opponents who try to overpower her; she has also been successful in the doubles this season, and her net game has improved a lot as well (which is usually good for the singles transition part).
Anyway, she looks to be physically and mentally strong — the Rome trophy was definitely a big motivation for her — and on the Beijing hard courts her return precision and low error rate make her a pretty good threat to a player with a similar game like Anisimova.
🇺🇸 Amanda Anisimova: form and statistics
Amanda Anisimova (WTA No.4) is one of the season's amazing stories: she grabbed a WTA 1000 title in Doha and went on to have a lot of success in Grand Slam tournaments, with the US Open final being her most recent run. Her WTA profile is loaded with achievements showing not only many victories but also top-10 level results throughout this year.
In Beijing, Anisimova has presented a fighting spirit — after a somewhat shaky start against Karolína Muchová she turned things around to get a 1-6, 6-2, 6-4 victory and advance to the quarterfinal, a performance that was a testament to the ability to recover mentally in the middle of a match and change the tempo of play.
The main features of Anisimova’s game are her smooth, low-bouncing groundstrokes and her knack for producing free points from inside-out forehands and aggressive returns; when she manages to first serve consistently, then she is capable of achieving a high ratio of winners over unforced errors. The downside is volatility — if her serve performance drops or she overextends herself then she can turn the points over to the opponent by double faults or return errors — but her Grand Slam results in recent times indicate better match management and fitness in three-set duels.
On hard courts she has the capability to seize the initiative straight away, imposing her tactics and thus making her opponents, like Paolini, to react faster and take more risks. Considering her recent accomplishments at the highest level (Doha title, slam final), she is going into this match as the favourite by the betting community and a sensible choice to win.
