Naomi v Laura is a much anticipated match, and I think the key battleground will be Naomi's serve and Laura's returns. When it is firing, Naomi's serve is a huge weapon, and Laura sometimes struggles to make lots of returns. The courts also seem to be quite lively this year, which could make it very difficult for Laura to get into Naomi's service games. If Laura does find a way to get a good amount of returns in play, I think she will beat Naomi from the back of the court, but that's a big if.

Either way, both players have more to win than to lose, so should be a good match. I'm not brave enough to pick a winner.

Really hope not

Laura experiences the difficulties in playing Naomi - from 15-40 massive serve after massive serve as Naomi doesn't give her a chance to seal the break. 4-3
