Aryna Sabalenka vs Qinwen Zheng Prediction & Picks - WTA French Open

Prediction published on 6/3/25, 1:11 AM  by Bradley Gibbs in Tennis Picks

On Tuesday, as things start to heat up at Roland Garros, the world number one will be in action. Aryna Sabalenka takes on Qinwen Zheng and she'll be looking to get her revenge following that unexpected defeat when the pair met the quarter-final of the WTA tournament in Rome recently. Since losing that match, Sabalenka has bounced back in true Sabalenka fashion, winning each of her four matches at the home of clay-court tennis without dropping a set. It's safe to say that her confidence hasn't been rocked by that defeat. In fact, she looks like a woman on a mission to go all the way in the French capital. 

For Qinwen Zheng, this is a really interesting match. Of course, that win against Sabalenka in Rome recently should fill the Chinese competitor, who as the world number seven is a top player, but in a weird way, that recent win puts pressure on what are still fairly young shoulders. Repeating that success at Roland Garros will be much harder, especially after she had to fight hard to beat Liudmila Samsonova in three sets in the last round. Does she have enough left in the tank? I'm not sure.
