This is a first round match from the Quanzhou ITF tournament between Chieh-Yu Hsu from Taipei and Magda Linette from Poland.
This is considered to be a one sided affair if you look at the odds but I really don't see it like that. Though it's true that overall the better player is Linette I don't think she plays that well in Asian tournaments. She has managed a good run this year but she hasn't played a match in more that two weeks and I think she will be a bit rusty.
Hsu on the other hand had to play the qualif. rounds here and she managed to win 3 matches in that stage to advance to the main draw. For that reason I believe she will be much more comfortable with the surface and conditions here and that will surely be an advantage for her. She has won 7 out of the 8 matches she played on hard this year and even though she is an unpredictable I think she is worth a go in this encounter.
At these huge odds I believe taking a risk is a good choice here because Hsu surely has the potential to get a win today and there is to much value here to not go for it.
