Command Analysis

Isabella Shinikova

Isabella Shinikova is 29 years old now, but she never went any higher than 133th position. In the current moment Bulgarian player is outside the Top-200 and the fact that she got into the main draw of WTA 250 tournament is already a huge achievement for her.

Shinikova has adapted to the local courts already. Bulgarian player advanced through two qualifying rounds, beating Bhatia (6:2, 7:5) and Perrin (6:2, 6:2).

Barbora Krejcikova

Barbora Krejcikova is having the best season in her career. Czech player sensationally won a Roland Garros tournament. Moreover, in London Barbora extended her winning streak to 15 matches, reaching the round of 16 at Wimbledon. She was stopped by an eventual winner of the Wimbledon, Ashleigh Barty (7:5, 6:3).

In Prague, Krejcikova will play the first match on hard surface after a long break. It won't be easy to put up a great performance right away. In the first game day Petra Kvitova had to leave the tournament after a sensational defeat to Sramkova.
