Elina Svitolina vs Anna Kalinskaya prediction
Anna Kalinskaya will hope the fast conditions and her recent history here can help her spring an upset against Elina Svitolina.
The Russian trails 3-1 in the head-to-head but did win 6-4 6-3 in Doha earlier this year.
The world number 20 enjoyed a solid French Open and did reach the final here back in 2024.
Svitolina has previously impressed at Wimbledon but her overall pedigree on the grass isn’t the same as on other surfaces.
That could open the door for Kalinskaya against the in-form Ukrainian who has usually found a way in an excellent 2026 so far.
Elina Svitolina vs Anna Kalinskaya tip: Anna Kalinskaya to win
