Kuwata vs Wolfe prediction

Hiroko Kuwata will face Jarmila Wolfe in the qualifications for WTA tournament in Washington. Here we have clash of the world’s number 157 and 334. Of course Wolfe has more quality even she has poorer ranking and reason why she is out of top 300 is that she missed last 3 months because of injury. She had a shoulder surgery and this will be her first match after that so I am not sure could she provide her best tennis at this moment. Even before this surgery she was not in best form and her record in this season is 5-8, while on hard she has only 1-5. On the other hand Kuwata is not in best form at this moment as she has 4 loses in a row. However 3 of this matches she played on grass where she doesn’t play her best tennis, while she also face pretty good players like Peng, Kucova, Zanevska and Savchuk. However she has a good record on hard surface 141-84, while this season she managed to win tournament in Gifu where she beat Wang in the final. She surely has some quality and I think she is capable to beat Wolfe who told that her priority in this game is to test her shoulder.
