Round one of the outdoor Toray Pan Pacific Open will see Diane Parry take on fellow unseeded player Cristina Bucsa. In the live rankings, Parry is only four places above her opponent. Neither are in good form and the stats have led us to make a prediction of more than 19.5 games.
In round two of this outdoor hard court tournament, the winner will face either sixth seed Sorana Cirstea or qualifier Maya Joint.
Diane Parry is at 34th in the live rankings and has won 15 of her 29 matches played on this surface in 2026. It's not been going well recently though with her last five matches all ending in defeat. Of those losses, three saw more than 19.5 games lost. That stat has come up in eight of her last ten matches.
Can Bucsa take advantage of her opponent's poor form? That's hard to predict as each of her last six matches has been lost. The most recent defeat came in Ningbo when Bucsa was beaten by Polina Kudermetova in straight sets. The first did go to a tie-break.
Bucsa has played a 7-5 or 7-6 set in each of her last four matches. More than 19.5 games have been played in each of the last five she's played.
