Simona Waltert vs Katerina Siniakova prediction
Katerina Siniakova may be known for her incredible doubles prowess, having won three French Opens in the format, but it is the singles competition which she’ll be focusing on here and improving on what has been a poor recent run of results at Roland-Garros, which has seen her reach the second round just once in the last three years.
Unfortunately for Siniakova, she’s been drawn against a very difficult opponent in Simona Waltert, who enjoyed an excellent clay court season in 2025. Waltert’s best surface by far is the clay and her record is testament to that, with well over 100 wins on it across her career. There is significant value in backing Waltert to get the better of Siniakova when taking this into account.
