Liudmila Samsonova vs Janice Tjen prediction

Liudmila Samsonova kick-started her 2026 campaign with a dominant opener in Abu Dhabi.

The Russian fifth seed powered to a 6-4 6-0 victory over Sofia Kenin and will now face Janice Tjen for the first time.

The Indonesian edged to a 7-6 3-6 6-3 triumph over Maya Joint and is a tricky customer when the forehand purrs.

Samsonova has a more refined game at present and the world number 18 should be too consistent on serve and in the rallies.
