Before that, she came through qualifying in Beijing, winning two matches in a row. Her stats show a hold rate of 66% and a first-serve percentage of 63%.

Lisa Pigato Player Overview
Lisa Pigato is the higher-ranked player at 108th in the world and arrives in good form, having won 8 of her last 10 matches. Her only defeat in that run came against Lucie Havlíčková last week. She has a notably high first-serve percentage of 84%, and has won 76% of her sets over this period.

- Lisa Pigato has won 8 of her last 10 matches.
- Lisa Pigato has won 76% of sets over her last 10 matches.

Given this, the chosen handicap looks justified - neither player is likely to dominate by a wide margin.
