Randy’s Pick
Blinkova has had to work hard to get to this point, and this will be her toughest match yet. Navarro has been a roll these last few months, which includes a pair of ITF titles, and she currently has the second-best odds to win this tournament behind only Elina Svitolina. Blinkova better improve her second serve to have a chance in this contest.
Give me Navarro, and I’ll back her in straight sets to shave the price down.
