That’s my prediction for tomorrow’s title match at the 2010 WTA Championships in Doha.
Why? Well, it seems as though Kim Clijsters righted herself a bit in today’s semi-final against Samantha Stosur, for starters. Although she double-faulted numerous times in earlier matches, she had just two today. On the flip side, the 27-year-old Belgian served six aces against her Australian opponent.
If she can keep that up in the final–and keep her unforced errors to a minimum, too–she should be able to topple Caroline Wozniacki, whom she defeated rather routinely in last year’s US Open final (their only previous match), once more.
The 20-year-old Dane has improved a lot in the ensuing year, however, so I expect her second match against the Belgian to be a much more competitive affair than her first.
Still, I predict Clijsters will take it in three and end her up-and-down year on a very high note.
