Tatjana Maria vs Viktorija Golubic prediction
After a slow start to the season, Maria showed her class on grass by claiming the honours at Queen's Club. She's chipped in with decent results since then and now has a great opportunity to win in Suzhou. The German has a steady all-around game and loads of experience on her side.
On the other hand, Golubic pulled a rabbit out of her hat by defeating Eala in the last round. Despite losing the first set, she clawed back into the contest and sent the Filipino home. The 32-year-old also has experience on her side and looks determined to excel in Suzhou.
Maria's clinical play from the baseline will test Golubic's resilience in the semifinal. Considering their results this year and ability to perform under pressure, the German should be able to sneak through to the finals.
Pick: Maria to win in straight sets.
