Mirra Andreeva vs Clara Tauson Prediction

I’m going Andreeva to win outright. It’s not too difficult to arrive at that conclusion. She’s the best 17-year-old we’ve seen on tour since probably Coco Gauff. In fact, she’ll become the first 17-year-old to be ranked in the top in almost two decades if she wins the title. That tells you how supremely talented she is. And what is perhaps often overlooked is how she has improved her mentality in high-pressure situations. This year, she’s been working with a sports psychologist, and maybe that’s one part of the jigsaw that takes Andreeva closer to the elite.

Clara Tauson is equally as talented and was on the rise until injuries began to derail that momentum a few years ago. Now, she’s back in the groove and is enjoying her best start to the season. However, she’ll need more than a power-packed game to beat Andreeva who has added layers to her game to win this quite comfortably.
