Command Analysis
Sofia Kenin is defending her points for the final of a previous year tournament. American player had a difficult road to the fourth round, but she managed to get here because of her unmatched motivation.
In the first round Sofia contained the attacks of Jelena Ostapenko in three sets (6:4, 4:6, 6:3). The match of the second round against Baptiste was the easiest one for Kenin (7:5, 6:3). But in the third round once again she needed three sets to beat Jessica Pegula (4:6, 6:1, 6:4).
Maria Sakkari already beat her previous year result in Paris, where she was eliminated in the third round. Without a doubt, Greek player would like to advance into the quarter-final.
