Maya Joint vs Anastasia Potapova prediction
Anastasia Potapova comes into the French Open having significantly impressed on the clay court this year. She’s won 14 games in total on the surface over the course of 2026 so far and has every reason to be confident of it continuing. Potapova takes on a rusty opponent in Maya Joint, who has suffered from very little preparation time heading into this tournament.
The Australian only returned from injury recently at the Italian Open, where she was beaten in straight sets by Viktorija Golubic. Since then, Joint has also suffered a first round defeat in Strasbourg and when taking into account how well her opponent is playing here, it would be a surprise to see her get the better of Potapova.
