Prediction
Wang Qiang and Nao Hibino are set to meet again for the third time.
Qiang wins the first 4 games and the last 4 to beat Yanina Wickmayer, 6-4 1-6 6-4 in Chennai. Meanwhile, Hibino outlasted Jana Fett in straight sets with a score of 6-0, 6-4 to reach the last 16.
Hibino made it through the qualifying draw in Chennai very easily. An opportunity to win a main draw match at this level that both players can win. However, the Japanese player often plays more steadily and consistently.
The fact that Hibino’s most recent victory came four years ago, when she defeated fellow countrywoman Misaki Doi to win the Japan Open, demonstrates what has happened to her form since. Hibino has won two senior WTA titles and made appearances in three additional finals. She used to be ranked as high as 56 in the world but is now having difficulty staying in the top 200.
The Prague Open in July, where she advanced through qualifying to reach the final eight before having to withdraw due to injury, gives some promise, though, if she wants to draw inspiration from more recent events. She finished last in the US Open qualification but easily advanced to the main draw in Chennai by dropping only three games in two sets against Sai Samhita Chamarthi of India and Daniela Vismane of Latvia.
On the other hand, Qiang had a terrible year in 2022, and it got worse at the US Open as she fell in the second round of qualifying. However, this week in Chennai, the sixth seed has a chance to save anything from her season even being unfit she ought to think she can beat anyone in the draw.
Wang should be winning this match because she is far stronger in most areas.
