World number 30 Yulia Putintseva will take on 12th seed Marta Kostyuk in the first round at the 2024 Paris Tennis Olympic Games. This Satuday encounter will be their first career matchup. The two have had contrasting recent records, which should guide us in our prediction for this match.
Yulia Putintseva is back at the Summer Games seeking her first-ever win at this stage. The Kazakh made her Olympic Games debut at the last edition, in Tokyo, where she unfortunately lost in the first round. As she has been in great form this year, she will be confident of making a winning start this time round.
Putintseva, who is placed 32nd in the live ranking, has put up a 31-16 record and has won nine times on clay. The 29-year-old has eight wins in her last nine matches, a run that yielded a title in Birmingham.
On the other hand, Marta Kostyuk is making her Olympic Games debut. She will be hoping for a strong start to offset her recent struggles. The Ukrainian has compiled a strong 22-13 record and has competed in two finals.
However, since finishing as runner-up in Stuttgart back in April, the 22-year-old has been unable to get a hold of her season. She has lost six of her last nine matches, with three of those defeats coming on clay. Kostyuk, who is the current world number 19, lost in the third round at Wimbledon in her last outing.
The winner from this encounter will play either Katerina Siniakova or Clara Burel in the next round.
