Jelena Ostapenko, the 23rd seed in Cincinnati, finally gets to begin her campaign and will do so against unseeded Lucia Bronzetti. They will battle in the third round, with the winner taking on Dayana Yastremska or Cori Gauff next. Read on to find our prediction for this match.
Lucia Bronzetti is one win away from equaling her best-ever finish at a WTA 1000 event. The Italian, who had never won a tie in Cincinnati, has won back-to-back matches by coming from behind in each one.
She defeated 15th seed Daria Kasatkina to book this round and, by doing so, moved to 57th in the live ranking. The 26-year-old has compiled a 17-20 record and is 8-8 on hard courts.
Jelena Ostapenko was supposed to begin her run in Cincinnati in the second round. However, Camila Osorio granted her a walkover. The former French Open champion has not played a competitive Singles match since being eliminated in Montreal in the third round almost two weeks ago.
Ostapenko, who defeated Bronzetti at the French Open in 2022, is having a sluggish year. Despite a topsy-turvy 17-15 record, she has managed to maintain her record of winning at least one title for five years straight.
Ostapenko was crowned champion in Stuttgart and also made the final in Doha. She is up to 26th in the live ranking.
