Editorial Prediction (July 27, 2025, UTC):

Analyzing the strengths and weaknesses of both players, we find Shanmugam's superior performance in critical stats like second serve points won, breakpoint saves, and match win percentages to be significant. These metrics suggest a competitive edge over Auytayakul. While Auytayakul's breakpoint conversion rate is notably high, this advantage may not fully bridge the gap between them.

Auytayakul's previous victory in their head-to-head matchup, albeit on hard courts, does add an element of unpredictability. Nevertheless, given Shanmugam's robust performance against higher-ranked players and superior handling of breakpoints and deciding sets, we lean towards Shanmugam as the more likely winner.
