45-year-old Venus Williams\u2019s legendary career will continue on the second day of the WTA 1000 in Indian Wells when she faces Diane Parry. There are 16 WTA matches on the slate for Day 2. We here at LWOT Predict all the action, including Peyton Stearns vs Solana Sierra<\/a> and Peyton Stearns vs Solana Sierra<\/a>, in our articles.<\/p>\n

WTA Indian Wells Day 2 Predictions
\nSonay Kartal vs Lanlana Tararudee<\/p>\n

Head-to-head: First meeting<\/p>\n

Neither woman strikes the ball with overwhelming force. The slow conditions in Indian Wells mean this could be a very lengthy match. Although Kartal\u2019s season so far has been mixed, I trust the Briton more to come through a long battle where mental and physical resilience could be crucial.
Prediction: Kartal in 3<\/p>\n

Anna Bondar vs Elsa Jacquemot<\/p>\n

Head-to-head: Bondar 1-0 Jacquemot<\/p>\n

This is another matchup that could be drawn out. Jacquemot is the more naturally aggressive of these people, but the Frenchwoman does not blow opponents off the court with her groundstrokes. Bondar often performs well on slow hard courts because she does not mind absorbing pressure and being patient. She is backed to triumph for that reason.
Prediction: Bondar in 3<\/p>\n

Varvara Gracheva vs Lilli Tagger<\/p>\n

Head-to-head: First meeting<\/p>\n

These two have played well since the Australian Open<\/a>. 18-year-old Tagger reached the final of a WTA 125K event in Mumbai, while Gracheva won seven matches in Doha and Dubai (including qualifying). Gracheva\u2019s flat shots are suited to making Tagger\u2019s one-handed backhand, often a strength, into more of a liability. I think she will beat the teenager by applying constant pressure in the rallies.
Prediction: Gracheva in 2<\/p>\n

Venus Williams vs Diane Parry<\/p>\n

Head-to-head: First meeting<\/p>\n

Seven-time Grand Slam champion Williams deserves immense credit for continuing to compete well at 45. However, she has also lost her last seven singles matches. The home favorite usually has moments in matches, but she can only win by being more consistent. I do not think her losing run will end against Parry, who was superb in her 6-3 6-2 qualifying victory over Lulu Sun. The Frenchwoman\u2019s slice, which stays very low, will be particularly useful against Williams.
Prediction: Parry in 2<\/p>\n
