WTA Quebec - Tuesday Analyze

This Tuesday some of the favorites of the tournament will be in action, the defending champion Kirsten Flikpens faces Polona Hercog, Lucie Safarova tries to overcome Anna Tatishvili and Bethanie Mattek-Sands has a contest with Stephanie Dubois.

Flikpens loves to play in fast surfaces where her serve and offensive tennis is more effective. Hercog prefers to play in clay, has a good top spin forehand and a kick serve, but in Indoor those weapons don’t harm her opponents. This will be the first meeting between the two and I expect a good victory from the first seed and defending champion.

Safarova knows very well how to play in Indoor and she showed last year in Fed Cup’s final against Serbia. Her powerful strokes are very hard to deal with and when Safarova is confident turns almost unstoppable. Tatishvili has been in awful form this year and lost her last six games in WTA main draws tournaments. The player from Georgia comes from US Open where she lost against Ivanovic 2 – 6 0 – 6. I predict an easy win for Safarova in this match against Anna Tatishvili.

The Canadian Stephanie Dubois will take on Bethanie Mattek-Sands and the American’s offensive game with good net skills make her a very good competitor in Indoor Hard Court. Dubois has a very weak serve and Mattek-Sands should be able to take advantage of that to take this match to her side. Mattek-Sands has played very good tennis this year and has everything to get a victory here.

There are other two interesting games today:

Melanie Oudin vs Kristina Mladenovic

Camila Giorgi vs Lauren Davis

This should be a good game at Quebec with plenty of action!
