Diana Yastremska

The Ukrainian athlete looks good this season, although it is clearly where to progress. At this tournament, Yastremskaya did not give any set, but the game remains questions. In the first circle, it was possible to beat the Italian Lucius Bortzetti – 7: 6, 7: 5, and the Croat Antony Ruzhych passed with a score of 7: 6, 6: 1.

The most famous rival was in the quarterfinals, because I had to play against the representative of Greece Maria Sakkari. In that meeting, Maria was considered a small favorite, the first set was in a stubborn struggle, with mutual breaks, Yastremskaya won with a score of 7: 5, and in the second party the Ukrainian dominated – 6: 0.

Compared to the first two matches, the Ukrainian woman played better, she made only one double mistake, not seven, as in previous matches. And the first submission reached 63%, which is also progress. There is a feeling that Yastremskaya can add when there is a need.

A very dangerous look has a Danish athlete this season, because she has already won a strong tournament in Auckland. Yes, in the finals of the mentioned tournament were lucky, because she gave the first set Osaka, and then the rival starred.

You can bring yourself into the asset and Aus Open. There the athlete reached the third circle, where she gave way to the first racket of the world, Arini Sobolenko. In Linza, Tauson looks one of the main contenders for the title, and fully meets expectations, because it has confidently ran. Danka won her first match in Ukrainian Angelina Kalinina – 6: 3, 6: 3, followed by an experienced Romanian Cyrista – 6: 2, 6: 4, in the last match it was possible to beat Anna Blinka – 6: 4, 6: 3. In this tournament, Tauson managed to serve 21 EIS, which looks powerful.

Statistics indicate that the athletes played only once. It was in 2022 in the qualification of the tournament in Dubai, then Yastremskaya won 7: 5, 5: 7, 6: 2.

Forecast

On paper, Danish athlete is considered a favorite that looks justified. And yet, there will be a surprise effect in such a match. If Yastremskaya shows her maximum, then she can fight for victory. The success of Tauson is given an average of 1.55, and for Ukrainian 2,61. I am waiting for a close match, without the dominance of one of the tennis players, I put on the victory of Yastremskaya with the +4 games for 1,64.
