Tatjana Maria vs Dayana Yastremska prediction
Tatjana Maria was on the brink of the third-round at the Canadian Open as she went a set and a break up against Caty McNally, but the American would fight back to win. Her best result on the WTA Tour this season was yet another appearance in a grass court final at the Eastbourne Open, but she lost to Madison Keys in straight sets. The veteran will be hoping for a strong showing here ahead of the US Open at the end of the month.
Her first-round opponent is Dayana Yastremska. She has not played since her second-round loss at Wimbledon to Jessica Bouzas Maneiro. Yastremska has lost nine of her 15 hard court matches, and she has a negative win-loss record in 2026. The Ukrainian is yet to reach a quarter-final on the WTA tour this season.
Yastremska lacks match sharpness, and her season has been underwhelming overall. This is a great opportunity for Maria to begin her campaign with a victory.
