Jelena Ostapenko vs Zeynep Sonmez prediction
Jelena Ostapenko hit the comeback trail to defeat Panna Udvardy and reach the last eight in Eastbourne.
The Latvian turned on the afterburners from a set down to notch up a 3-6 6-1 6-2 success over the Hungarian.
The 2021 champion will now tackle Zeynep Sonmez for a second time after the Turkish star received a walkover into the quarter-finals as a result of Sara Bejlek’s withdrawal.
Ostapenko claimed a 2-6 7-5 6-3 win in their maiden meeting in the Billie-Jean King Cup two years ago and will feel good about her chances given previous form at the tournament, her superior ranking as the third seed and the psychology of the head-to-head.
