Winning in 2017 both singles and doubles, and last year at doubles, Irina feels great when it comes to evolving at the Bucharest tournament.
This year again had excellent performances coming after a least modest season, if we report that it was out of the top 100.

Tennis Prediction of the Day Irina Begu vs Laura Siegemund

The match between the two protagonists announces a spectacular and yet balanced one, both of which are solid players on this surface. The long throws of balls behind the pitch will prevail in this meeting, with a small advantage on the side of Irina Begu, while Laura Siegemund will try to break the pace of the game with the short cuts around the net. Without a clear favorite in this match, I expect a long game, the sets can be decided even after a tiebreak, and are also likely to be decided after a decisive set in favor of either player.
