Sorana Cirstea vs Tyra Caterina Grant prediction
Sorana Cirstea is seeded at this event as she is set to compete in the final Madrid Open of her career. Her best result was two quarter-final finishes in 2016 and 2017. Cirstea looked on course for a second title of the year at the Open de Rouen, as she beat Fiona Ferro, Xinyu Wang and Anna Bondar to reach the semi-finals. However, she withdrew from the tournament before her last four match against qualifier Veronika Podrez.
She faces Tyra Caterina Grant in the second-round. She notched up her first ever win on the WTA Tour as she easily got past Elsa Jacquemot in round one. Grant conceded just the one break point as she wrapped up a 6-1 6-2 win after one hour and 12 minutes.
If Cirstea is fully fit, this will be a very tough match for the 18-year-old, with the Romanian having won a commanding 22 of her 28 matches in 2026.
