🇨🇳 WTA Beijing — Sonay Kartal vs Alycia Parks

Event: China Open • Surface: Hard • Round: Main Draw

🎯 Peak flashes: R16 at Indian Wells and Wimbledon; briefly cracked the Top-50.
🧊 Cold stretch: 0–3 on the North American swing (all 3-setters), then a narrow BJK Cup loss to Navarro after beating Shibahara.
🧭 Beijing MD debut; 2025 hard-court record 8–9.

🎢 Inconsistent year: 15 Q/1R exits across levels; hasn’t won a match since Monterrey.
⚡️ Ceiling reminder: Monterrey SF last month; power can catch fire quickly.
🏟️ Prior Beijing experience (R2 in 2024). 2025 hard 15–13 but lopsided scorelines vs elite.

First meeting (0–0).
