Aoi Ito vs Alina Korneeva prediction
Alina Korneeva meets Aoi Ito for the first when they face-off in Athens.
The 19-year-old Russian is into the top 100 and sitting at a career high of 92 in the rankings.
The teenager has made big strides in qualifiers for Majors recently, making the second round at the French Open and the first hurdle at Wimbledon, and appears to be very much on the rise.
Japan’s Ito has not made much impact in 2026 but has been on tour for a few years now. The 22-year-old is down at 246 on the WTA ladder and going by current trajectory and overall form, we side with the teen here.
