Prediction
In their second-round match, Jelena Ostapenko defeated Anastasia Gasanova in two hours, 35 minutes, and three sets. This week’s top seed, a Latvian, triumphed 6-3, 5-7, 7-5. Compared to Gasanova’s 58%, Ostapenko won 64% of her first-serve points. Ostapenko faced 14 break points in all, eight of which she saved. With 15 break points at her disposal, Gasanova also managed to preserve eight of them. Ostapenko finished with 118 points overall while Gasanova took home 111. The next opponent for Ostapenko will be Wednesday’s quarterfinalist Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva who overthrew Rebecca Marino in straight sets with a score of 6-4, 6-2.
This week in Seoul, Ostapenko, the 19th-ranked player in the world, needed three sets on two occasions to defeat opponent of lower ranked, but the Latvian will get better with each subsequent game. The 25-year-old has struggled to win back-to-back matches since a discouraging loss to Tatjana Maria in the round of 16 at Wimbledon, with a first-round loss at the US Open earlier this month being particularly poor. However, having done so, she should be noticeably less distracted in this difficult first matchup with 17-year-old Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva now that she has done so.
Regardless of how this first tour quarterfinal turns out, the Andorran will achieve a new career-high WTA world ranking of roughly 153rd, but there is more than a hint of an upset here given Ostapenko’s own subpar performances and her strong march to the last eight without dropping a set. Even if it makes sense to trust Ostapenko to win handily, betting on Jimenez Kasintseva to pull off a genuine upset would be worthwhile in this case.
