WTA – WTA Dubai Duty Free (Round 2) – Dubai, United Arab Emirates
- When: Tuesday, February 20th, 2024
Sloane Stephens vs. Iga Swiatek
Although Swiatek lost in Australia, she remains the world’s top ranked tennis player. However, Swiatek could struggle on the spread line.
Sloane Stephens is just 3-3 in singles matches this season. But Sloane knocked out Clara Burel to qualify for Dubai. Stephens won’t win this, but she shouldn’t lose by more than 7 games.
Tennis Betting Pick: Sloane Stephens +7 -123
Elisabetta Cocciaretto vs. Coco Gauff
Cocciaretto had to qualify for Dubai. Not only did Cocciaretto have to qualify, but she had to beat a solid player in Elise Mertens to score the bid.
Still, on Tuesday, Cocciaretto faces one of the top players in the world. 2023 U.S. Open winner Coco Gauff lost in the Australian Open semis to Aryna Sabalenka. The spread line is tough, but Coco can cover.
Tennis Betting Pick: Coco Gauff -6 -137
Peyton Stearns vs. Markéta Vondroušová
Stearns has some talent. The 22-year-old American had to beat a solid player in Mirra Andreevato stamp her ticket to this tournament.
Also, Peyton doesn’t have to beat Markéta Vondroušová to cash. All Stearns has to do is keep the match close, 6-4, 6-4. The American accomplishes the task.
Tennis Betting Pick: Peyton Stearns +5 -127
Aryna Sabalenka vs. Donna Vekic
It’s tough to back Donna Vekic versus the hottest, strongest, and seemingly invincible Aryna Sabalenka.
Aryna, who should probably be ranked first in the world, is 11-1 in singles matches this season. The loss came against Elena Rybakina in a final. Sabalenka rolls.
Tennis Betting Pick: Aryna Sabalenka -6 -114
Zheng Qinwen vs. Nao Hibino
Nao Hibino worked hard to make it to the Dubai Duty Free. Her dream ends in a rough match against Zheng Qinwen on Tuesday.
Zheng is emerging as one of 2024’s top young players. It’s a matter of time before Zheng steps into the Swiatek, Sabalenka, Gauff category. The soon-to-be superstar wins by at least 6 games.
Tennis Betting Pick: Zheng Qinwen +5.5 -128
Emma Navarro vs. Maria Sakkari
Sakkari got the bye because she’s the eighth seed. For her efforts, Sakkari gets to take on one of America’s top young women’s tennis players.
Emma Navarro beat a strong opponent in Kateřina Siniaková in to notch her spot in the Dubai Duty Free. Navarro has the look of an upset minded long shot. She sends Sakkari home after the eight seed’s first match.
Tennis Betting Pick: Emma Navarro +105
