Halep Bags the Canadian Open
Simona Halep, newly crowned World No. 6, arrives in Cincinnati after a superb title run in the Canadian Open.
The 30-year-old won her first WTA 1000 title in over two years after beating a handful of well-known names like Shuai Zhang, Jil Teichmann, Coco Gauff, and Jessica Pegula. In the final, Simona dispatched the rising Brazilian star, Beatriz Haddad Maia, in three sets.
This also marks her first title since joining hands with Patrick Mouratoglou earlier in the season.
Halep has now improved her tally to 38-10 and has now set her sights on the Western & Southern Open. She is a three-time finalist here, the most recent being in 2018.
All in all, the number 15 seed looks fit, confident, and happy – something much needed for another title run.

Muchova Out of Form
Karolina Muchova, age 25, hasn’t had the best of the spells in 2022. An injury, the consequent recovery period, and the loss in form kept her out of commission for most of the season.
Her tally is 6-6 as she cautiously approaches the tour to rebuild her form. Her last event was the Concord Challenger, where she retired against the then #241 Katrina Scott in the second round. Before that, she lost in the first round in Wimbledon and Bett1Open – respectively to Halep and Ons Jabeur.
With fitness still a big concern for Muchova, it is difficult to imagine her surpassing Halep in the Cinci opener. As a result, her ranking has also dropped down to No. 161.
As a former World No. 19 and the 2021 Australian Open semifinalist, Karolina has been known to impress and outperform the big names. Had she been fully fit for this fixture, an upset would certainly be on the cards.
Halep v Muchova Prediction and Tip
Things are going superbly for Halep; she is at the peak of her form this season. As a result, this match against the struggling and rebounding Muchova should not prove to be too big of a challenge for the two-time Grand Slam winner.
