Pick 4: Garbine Muguruza ML +110

Wta Finals is on air!! Top 8 tennis players of the 2021 WTA Tour are competing against each other to become the best player of the year. The tournament is in Round Robin format consisting of 2 groups with 4 players in each. Winners and runner ups of the each group will qualify to play SF and F of the tournament.

The finals are taking place in Mexico this year above +1566 m of the sea level. Why is it important? This means the balls are flying due to less air pressure. The tour developed special pressureless balls for this reason but early matches showed that players are still struggling with the conditions. So we look for players who can adapt her game into high altitude and fast surface to find our bets.

Barbora Krejcikova has fought in many fronts this year, played a lot of matches in singles, doubles and mixed doubles. She is the only player playing doubles and singles in this tournament and she didn`t hesitate to play BJK cup a week ago while others chose to skip for not risking WTA finals. But fatigue is visible in her tennis nowadays and conditions are obviously against her game which is pretty much based on the effective use of serve and backhand. Krejcikova committed 34 Unforced errors in her first match which is way too many and displaying her distaste from the conditions.

Muguruza is motivated and has a crowd advantage here. The conditions are not good for her tennis as well but i believe she can accord her serve and game better than Krejcikova.

Because there is a bittersweet feud between these two, i believe that this match will be a close one but when i think of players` forms and motivations, i am giving the edge to Muguruza here!
