WTA Nottingham
Yastremska v Maria 1.93
Due to start at 3 pm
Confidence rating 6.5/10 *Maria is in excellent grass form. She took a set from Rybakina in London last week. She seems to ,like conditions at that tournament and was defending champion. Doesn’t reach the same level elsewhere.

Maria 1-0 (Feb 2023, hard, 2 sets). Grass win %’s favour Yastremska.

Yastremska reached the Final last season. 2 sets win over a lucky loser in the 1st round.

1-5
1-6

Stats for Yastremska was obviously poor. Despite a low first serve percentage, Maria had lost just 2 points on serve.

My confidence rating on this match indicated that I wasn’t certain which way this would go. There had been several players so far this week that were not giving 100% and were probably saving themselves for Wimbledon. I stayed out of the second set.

In the second set, the first 2 games were holds but Yastremska would not hold again. Maria was broken when serving for the set at 5-1.

Maria won 6-1, 6-2.
