Tiantsoa Rakotomanga Rajaonah vs Amanda Anisimova prediction
Tiantsoa Rakotomanga Rajaonah competed at the WTA 125 Challenger event in Paris last time out, winning her first-round match against Renata Zarazua, but then losing to Madison Keys in straight sets. The 20-year-old’s record in 2026 is extremely poor, with just two wins from 13 matches. She is now ranked outside of the top 150 in the world.
Her first-round opponent is Amanda Anisimova. She has not played since the Miami Open two months ago as a result of a wrist injury. The American was set to feature at the Italian Open but withdrew on the eve of the tournament. Her best result of the season was a semi-final in Dubai, but her current level is an unknown.
Anisimova has continued to practice with her wrist heavily strapped during training at Roland Garros. She is still a clear favourite to win her first-round match, but there must be concerns over whether she can physically sustain a deep run over the next two weeks.
Tiantsoa Rakotomanga Rajaonah vs Amanda Anisimova tip: Under 18.5 games
