Top seed Kim Clijsters faces her first real test of the tournament against Lucie Safarova.
Safarova is a talented leftie with a difficult sliding serve and a very dangerous forehand. She’s currently ranked 41 but has been and should be ranked quite a bit higher.
Clijsters has never played Safarova before so will not know exactly what to happen but she can always ask Ana Ivanovic who was beaten twice by Safarova last year.
Clijsters’ progress so far has been nothing less than serene. She’s yet to drop more than three games in a match and completely demolished an admittedly erratic Alicia Molik.
Safarova had an impressive second round win of her own, a 6-3, 6-1 defeat of the talented young Canadian sixth seed Aleksandra Wozniak.
Clijsters is a heavy 1/7 favourite with Sky Bet while Safarova is 11/2 with Boylesports.
