Our pick: Sevastova A. – Riera J.: 1

27.02.2024 17:00

Anastasija Sevastova of Latvia returned to the courts in February after maternity leave and managed to reach the quarterfinals in her first tournament in Cluj, Romania. She will try to build on this successful result in Austin, USA, where she will face twenty-one-year-old Argentine Julia Riera.

Riera opened her season in Brisbane, Australia, where she surprisingly made it from the qualification to the eighth round. However, she did not build on this result in the following tournaments. At the Australian Open, she dropped out in qualifying and at the poorly-attended WTA 125 (the equivalent of the men’s Challengers) in Puerto Vallarta, she finished in the eighth round.

Although Sevastova clearly lacks playing experience, she showed in Cluj that she hasn’t forgotten tennis. Another in a long line of tennis mothers, she still wants to prove that at 33 she can leave a more significant mark on the top circuit, even though she is aware that she won’t reach her former position (she was world No. 11).

What to bet on:

Sevastova is a quality tennis player with a variety of shots, something that Riera lacks for now. The winner of four WTA tournaments enters the event in Austin, USA victorious and will follow up her tournament in Cluj.

Confidence:

8/10
