Day 3 features some very tasty matchups, including this year\u2019s two <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/category\/french-open\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">French Open<\/a> finalists taking the stage.<\/p>\n<p>WTA Singapore Day 3 Predictions<br \/>\nElise Mertens vs Barbora Krejcikova<\/p>\n<p>Head-to-head: Mertens 1-0 Krejcikova<\/p>\n<p>Mertens won an extremely close three setter when the pair faced earlier this year at the United Cup, and a similarly close match could well happen here. Krejcikova had a terrible summer, but her talent and ability are undeniable and she will be looking to bounce back here and prove that she is way better than her current ranking of #44 suggests.<br \/>Prediction: Krejcikova in 3<\/p>\n<p>Alycia Parks vs Leylah Fernandez<\/p>\n<p>Head-to-head: Parks 2-1 Fernandez<\/p>\n<p>Parks has actually won both of their Slam meetings, including this year in Australia, but Fernandez has established herself as a solid Top 50 player and clearly the better of the two in general, even if far from what was expected a few years ago. Under normal circumstances, the Canadian should have the slight edge here.<br \/>Prediction: Fernandez in 3<\/p>\n<p>Oleksandra Oliynykova vs Maja Chwalinska<\/p>\n<p>Head-to-head: Chwalinska 1-0 Oliynykova<\/p>\n<p>It has been a very difficult few months for Chwalinska after her incredible run to the French Open final, with her first round win here in Singapore being only her second match win since. That said, this week might provide a good opportunity to get out of that prolonged slump and she certainly seems to have the edge in this matchup.<br \/>Prediction: Chwalinska in 3<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/09\/2026-06-03T131347Z_596512198_MT1USATODAY29124682_RTRMADP_3_TENNIS-FRENCH-OPEN-e1780492900201.webp\" alt=\"Maja Chwalinska at the 2026 French Open\" width=\"1200\" height=\"813\" class=\"size-full wp-image-106079\"\/>Jun 3, 2026; Paris, France; Maja Chwalinska of Poland reacts during her match against Anna Kalinskaya on day 10 at Stade Roland Garros.
