Iva Jovic will begin her grass-court season on Tuesday against Antonia Ruzic in the first round of the 2026 HSBC Championship at the Queen’s Club.
The No. 19-ranked Jovic put on an impressive campaign on grass in 2025, posting an 8-1 record, winning the Ikley Open, and winning three matches in a row to qualify for the main draw of the 2025 Wimbledon Open. This year, Jovic is taking his Wimbledon Open preparation to another level by competing in the star-studded WTA 500 HSBC Championship at Queen’s Club.
Meanwhile, Ruzic sealed her spot in the main draw of this event after taking down Aoi Ito 6-3, 6-4 and Storm Hunter 6-3, 4-6, 7-5 in the qualifier. Ruzic carries a 15-16 record on the WTA Tour this year with a 7-10 record against the WTA top 100. However, the Croatian netter is only 1-5 against the top 20 in 2026 and 1-9 overall against these players.
