Linda Noskova vs. Lulu Sun

It’s the final of the WTA 500 event in Monterrey and there will be a new winner and a first title on tour for one of the two finalists. Who will take home their first title at WTA Monterrey?

WTA Monterrey Final Prediction

Linda Noskova vs. Lulu Sun

One-on-one: Noskova 0 vs 1 Sun

Linda Noskova or Lulu Sun will leave the Sonoma Club hardcourts with their first tour title. The New Zealander won their previous encounter in Cincinnati just over a week ago, but it was a close encounter. Since that loss, Noskova has won four without dropping a set, and she showed remarkable steel against Emma Navarro in the semifinals to win in straight sets.

Both are worthy finalists, but only one player can take home the trophy. While Sun shone in Monterrey, Noskova was more efficient and clinical. The Czech teenager has served better than anyone this week, and if she keeps that up, she will take home her first title. Expect fireworks.

Prediction: Noskova in 3
