Command Analysis
Jessica Pegula
USACurrent form
Pegula had a great transition on clay with the title in Charleston. However, Jessica has not been able to do anything in Europe yet. At tournaments in Stuttgart, Madrid and Rome, she overcame one round each and sheathed her racket. Ahead is the start in Strasbourg, where the American tennis player has competed twice and has never been able to overcome the barrier of the opening round.
Professional qualities
Pegula likes to play number one, attack and dictate his terms on the court. She doesn't have the most convenient first serve, a well-placed forehand, but at the same time, the backhand is not particularly stable.

Anna Kalinskaya
Russian FederationCurrent form
Kalinskaya performed well at the first clay tournament in Charleston, where she managed to reach the quarterfinals. However, she did not show anything further at the prestigious starts in Madrid and Rome, winning only one match. In Strasbourg, Anna started with a difficult victory over Dolhide, but did not demonstrate a stable game (6-2, 4-6, 6-3).
Professional qualities
Anna likes to play fast, forcing her rivals to make mistakes due to the high tempo. She is not afraid to take risks, boldly goes to the grid. Plus, the Russian tennis player has a powerful first serve. However, all this works very effectively for her when she is in shape and does not experience any health problems.
Current indicators in the tour
Kalinskaya's season is not going well: she has only eight wins and ten losses. Anna ranks 30th in the ranking, but obviously if she does not stabilize the results, she will soon roll back even beyond the top 50.
Interesting facts for betting
- Kalinskaya has played two sets in six of her last seven matches.
- In three of Kalinskaya's four previous matches, more than nine games were played in the second game.
