Sofia Kenin has a date against Leylah Fernandez at the Hong Kong Open, with the two meeting in the first round. This will be the third encounter between them, and Fernandez, being in fine form, is the pick in our prediction to prevail.
Fernandez has been unfortunate to lose in the final in her last two events. She will be hoping for a better run here. The Canadian lost to Diana Shnaider in the Tokyo final right after having fallen to Elena Rybakina in the Ningbo title match.
She will be confident of passing this hurdle, having recorded a 20-7 record in the first round. A former Hong Kong champion, Fernandez has compiled a 31-27 record this season and comes here placed 18th in the live ranking.
Kenin is such a tricky player, and despite her low ranking in the WTA, she has beaten Fernandez in the earlier two matches between them. The American is also a former Grand Slam winner but hasn’t had a great season in 2026.
The 27-year-old has not gone past the third round at any point this season. Her highlight for the season has been reaching the third round in Charleston.
She has a very poor record in the first round in the events she’s taken part in this season. Kenin comes here having compiled a 6-15 record in the opening round.
