Iva Jovic vs Magda Linette prediction
Iva Jovic’s sparkling start to 2026 continues after she backed up her semi-final charge in Auckland with a push to the last eight in Hobart.
The 18-year-old has only dropped four games so far at this tournament as she saw off Renata Zarazua 6-1 6-2.
The American third seed will expect a tougher test against eighth seed Magda Linette after the Pole made it back-to-back quarter-finals with a 6-1 7-5 success at the expense of Xin Yu Wang.
This will be their second meeting after Jovic posted a shock 6-4 6-3 win at the US Open back in 2024.
The American has moved up several levels since then and is now the higher ranked player. Indeed, Jovic is playing some supreme tennis at the moment and while Linette will hope to make things tight and use her experience, the indicators suggest it’s going to be Iva’s day.
