Babos is having a great tournament and overcoming Ostapenko will be huge for confidence. Bogdan managed to beat Jelena which looks great on paper but she is far from her best.
As for Begu...some interesting stats floating around the forum but value is on the Romanian...we could grab her at +2.5 for 1.66
Babos was really tested...she even broke down mentally from 5-2 up to go down 5-6 and managed to force a tie break and also come back from 1 mini break and 3-0 early. She showed a lot of heart but the match must have been exhausting in just under 2 hours...Some of the rallies were extremely draining and when Bogdan made a stand she managed to break Timea 5 times and controlled the court as well with some great power...
As for Begu, I did not watch the match but the stats indicate Puig struggled on her serve which is one of her weapons. I think we see another Romanian grab a title...Her drop shot is impeccable and Babos sits way too far back from the baseline hitting power and she is not that quick with the feet. I can see Babos offering the break points early and if Begu capitalizes it could be a short day.
