Elise Mertens: results and notes
Ranking no. 21, Mertens reached the 3rd round after defeating Fiona Ferro 6-2 6-0 and Monica Niculescu 7-5 6-0.
His best result this year was winning the title in Doha where he beat Simona Halep in the final 3-6 6-4 6-3.

Last year at Wimbledon
The Belgian lost in the 3rd round 6-2 6-2 from Dominika Cibulkova.
This will be a close meeting because Wang hasn't broken all the tournaments. On the other hand, Mertens hasn't dropped a set, and has won two sets with bagels. The Belgian should give his experience, but it could happen.
Prediction: Mertens in 3
