Harriet Dart Faces Caroline Dolehide in WTA Guangzhou 2024: Odds and Predictions
Harriet Dart is set to face Caroline Dolehide in the Round of 32 at the WTA Guangzhou, China Women Singles 2024. This match promises to be an exciting contest between the 78th-ranked Dart and the 101st-ranked Dolehide. Despite Dart’s higher ranking, Dolehide enters this match as the favorite with odds of -155, while Dart’s odds to win stand at +120. Both players will be looking to advance further in the tournament, making this a critical match for both competitors.
Dart’s recent form has been a bit shaky, with her most recent outing resulting in a loss to Clara Tauson in the Round of 128 at the China Open on September 26, 2024. In that match, Dart started strong, winning the first set 7-5, but eventually lost momentum and fell 4-6, 1-6. Her current record on hard courts this year is 12-10, and she has shown a decent ability to win her service games, claiming 63.7% of them on hard surfaces over the last 12 months. On the return, Dart has been less dominant, winning 42.4% of her games, but she has proven effective in break points, converting nearly 49.2% of her chances.

Caroline Dolehide, on the other hand, comes into this match after a three-set loss to Elina Avanesyan at the China Open, where she was defeated 3-6, 7-5, 2-6 in the Round of 64. Dolehide’s form on hard courts has been a bit underwhelming, with an 8-14 record in 2024. However, her serve has been a key weapon, with a 65% service game win rate on hard courts this year. Her return game has been less impressive, winning just 30.3% of her return games on hard courts. However, Dolehide has demonstrated some resilience and may have an edge going into this matchup.
In terms of head-to-head, these two players have only met once before, in the BNP Paribas Open qualifying round, where Dolehide comfortably beat Dart 6-1, 6-2. With Dolehide winning 12 out of the 15 games played between them in that match, Dart will need to bring her best game to challenge her opponent this time.
As both players look to bounce back from recent losses, this matchup promises to be a closely contested affair. Dart will be aiming to improve her service and return game, while Dolehide will try to capitalize on her previous success against Dart. With betting odds favoring Dolehide, Dart will be looking to upset the expectations and make her mark in this tournament.
Tennis fans should keep an eye on this encounter, as it could very well come down to which player can maintain their composure and consistency on the hard court in Guangzhou.
