Kamilla Rakhimova vs Tamara Korpatsch Prediction

A title win will seal Rakhimova’s top 100 return, but it is far from a done deal for the new Uzbekistani player. Korpatsch has pathways to make this a very competitive final. Her backhand has been steady and her serve has been rock solid all week. It might not be ideal preparation for Rakhomvpa, who played a three-hour semifinal. That said, Rakhimova is a tireless competitor and can drag Korpatsch into longer rallies and test her patience.
