Why this pick
Magda Linette to beat Aliona Falei heads Monday's tennis list ahead of Katie Boulter and Mananchaya Sawangkaew, and the opponent is what separates them. Viktorija Golubic and Mai Hontama have been off court since 24 and 25 October, while Falei plays her third match in three days after a 7-5 final set against Rada Zolotareva on Sunday.
Five sets for Falei across the weekend
Falei beat Ekaterina Yashina 6-1 6-4 on Saturday and Zolotareva 6-4 4-6 7-5 on Sunday to come through qualifying, her first matches since a three-set defeat by Rebecca Sramkova at Suzhou WTA 125 on 9 October. For Linette to lose, Falei has to win on a third straight day against a player ranked 125 places above her.
Who has beaten Linette since August
Linette has lost eight of her last ten, so the risk on this one is real. The players who beat her in October were Katerina Siniakova twice, Sinja Kraus in Wuhan and Lilli Tagger, who played the Guangzhou final on Sunday.
