My Prediction
Swiatek in straight sets. That's all. Oh, and don't forget to pick up grandma's dentures on your way out!Looking at the upcoming BNP Paribas Open, Yastremska versus Swiatek is going to be like Frank Sinatra singing in a karaoke bar, a bit of a one-sided show. No offense intended to Yastremska, but if her racket were a crystal ball, it would probably show a future that involves losing the match. Yastremska has been exhibiting a form dazzling as cloudy London weather, with only two golden rays of hope shining through courtesy of victories over Jabeur and Yuan.
Now, moving onto Swiatek – the lass is as solid as a brick wall posed next to a cherry pie. A seed 2 ranking hanging around her neck is solid proof of that. She swallowed Yastremska whole in their last dance around the court, which makes me raise an eyebrow more than a librarian seeing someone chew gum.
As much as I'd love to see an unseeded player teach the tournament favorite a lesson in humility, I wouldn't bet my Grandma's dentures on it. The only thing Yastremska could possibly offer Swiatek is a practical example of 'how not to lose a match'. What I'm trying to say, folks, is... in the grand scheme of things, if Yastremska is a mouse, Swiatek is well... an eagle with a mouse detector.
