Rebecca Sramkova vs Varvara Gracheva prediction

Rebecca Sramkova and Varvara Gracheva will both be looking to chalk up their first main draw wins of 2026 in Hobart. 

Sramkova eased through qualifying but came up short to Kim Birrell in three sets in Brisbane while Sramkova was well beaten by Elina Svitolina at the same tournament.

This will be their second encounter after Gracheva posted a straight sets win in Eastbourne last year. 

Sramkova sits just four places above her French opponent but does appear to be playing with more rhythm at this moment in time.

Indeed, Gracheva will need to move through a few gears to make an impact after a poor showing against Svitolina.
