🔍 Match Breakdown

Experience vs rust defines this matchup. Jeanjean’s rhythm, first-strike forehand, and heavier hard-court volume are her main edges. But she’s still searching for rhythm after a string of losses and recurring physical issues.

Stojanovic, meanwhile, returns after a long break. She can counterpunch effectively when settled, especially attacking second serves. Her route to an upset lies in staying patient, forcing extended rallies, and exploiting Jeanjean’s mid-set dips.

Jeanjean’s blueprint is simple: high first-serve clip, early forehand initiative, and keeping exchanges short. If she dictates tempo and limits defensive sequences, her higher ceiling should show.

🔮 Prediction

Jeanjean’s ranking and hard-court body of work make her a rightful favorite, though confidence remains fragile. Expect some patchy momentum swings early before the Frenchwoman steadies.

Pick: Leolia Jeanjean in two sets.
Potential three-setter if Stojanovic lands early returns and extends baseline exchanges.
