Get on it because this match will go three sets and I’ll tell you how I know it.

Sawangkaew is 8 – 1 in the last 9 outings and making a second straight quarterfinals appearance after the four wins at Guangzhou. The list of names from those wins might not be filled with high-profile players but the loss to 52nd-ranked Olga Danilovic in Guangzhou was still a great battle that went to 6 – 4, 6 – 4.

The 22-year-old Thailander is considered the #1 from her country now that she appears in the top 150 WTA Rankings (147). With the QF showing in Guangzhou, Sawangkaew became the first player from Thailand to reach that stage of a WTA-level event. That was a WTA250 tourney as this event is this week at Jiujiang.

There is room for concern after what just happened yesterday. Sawangkaew was a third-set tie-break away from losing to 988th-ranked Siasai Zheng. Down 6 – 4, the Thai native mounted up enough effort to sneak past the wildcard entrant, 8 – 6. Zheng won the first set, 6 – 4, and the pressure was already on Sawangkaew who almost wasn’t here today.

Siegemund struggled with 200th-ranked Tamara Korpastch but got past her German counterpart at 6 – 4, 6 – 4. 

Sawangkaew can take a set from Siegemund to force this match to go the distance so enjoy the +141 offer from Unibet.
