Varvara Gracheva
Veronika Kudermetova
Gracheva has thrived on patience and rally control, breaking down bigger hitters with depth and selective aggression. Kudermetova’s serve-plus-one and flat ball-striking will push her much deeper in the court, forcing more reactive defense.
Kudermetova’s key will be managing unforced errors. If she keeps the tally under 20, her first-strike tennis should dictate play. Aggressive positioning on Gracheva’s second serve could set the tone early.
Fatigue could tilt this — Gracheva’s logged more hours and emotional swings, while Kudermetova’s been sharper in match efficiency.
Gracheva’s run has been inspiring, but Kudermetova’s firepower and H2H edge give her the upper hand. Unless the errors pile up, expect her to control the scoreboard.
Pick: Kudermetova in straight sets, with at least one tight set decided by a few key points.

Iga Świątek
Anna Kalinskaya
Świątek’s engine is humming again on hard courts: heavy, penetrating depth, the forehand that flips defense into offense, and the footwork to live on the baseline. The bonus this week is freshness — perfect for absorbing and turning around Kalinskaya’s flat, early-taking aggression.
Kalinskaya’s leap isn’t a mirage. She’s serving with sharper patterns, picking her spots, and showing more patience in neutral rallies. But the workload matters. If footwork fades or she loses length on the backhand line, Świątek will stretch rallies and squeeze errors.
Dubai gave Kalinskaya a blueprint and belief, yet Cincinnati plays slower than the UAE’s quick courts — a tilt toward Świątek’s grind-and-pounce style. The Russian’s path: red-line early, feast on second-serve looks, and keep points short. Let things breathe, and the Pole’s weight of shot takes over.
The combination of form, freshness, and surface fit leans Świątek. Kalinskaya absolutely has the pace to nick a set if she serves at peak and front-runs the short exchanges, but sustaining that pressure for two sets against this version of Świątek is a tall order.
Pick: Świątek in two tight sets (something like 7–5, 6–3 feels live).
