Hibino Rebounds to Down Hartono
World No. 259 Nao Hibino will be playing just her third tour-level main draw match of the season, after the two-time tour-level champion qualified for the Hamburg Open.
The Japanese player rallied from a set down to defeat the Netherlands’ Arianne Hartono in a two-hour-and-12-minute contest on Sunday to make it to the main draw.
The 27-year-old Hibino was outplayed in the first set by the Dutch player but she came back in the second, breaking Hartono in the first game of the set, to eventually force the decider.
In the third, both players broke each other thrice to take it into the tiebreak. Hibino dominated the tiebreak and sealed the second qualifying round contest 3-6, 6-4, 7-6 (7-2). Hibino had beaten Belgium’s Ysaline Bonaventure in the opening qualifying round.
While Hibino is 0-2 in the main draw at the tour-level this year, she did reach her first ITF final in four years, finishing runner-up in Chiang Rai.
The Japanese player has lots of experience playing on hard courts, but when it comes to clay, she has a 34-40 career record across levels.

Hibino v Cadantu-Ignatik Prediction and Tip
Cadantu-Ignatik will be a bit tired after her marathon on Sunday. Will that have a bearing on her first round match against Hibino? It will be interesting to see. The Japanese has never won against the Romanian and she may struggle to win again.
Tip: Three sets in the match: 6/4 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
