Iva Jovic guns for a sweep against Xinyu Wang in the first round of the 2026 Bad Homburg Open.
Iva Jovic will resume her Wimbledon Open build-up at Bad Homburg after reaching the semifinals of the 2026 HSBC Championship at Queen’s Club. Ranked No.17 in the world, Jovic defeated Antonia Ruzic, Alexandra Eala, and last year’s Wimbledon Open runner-up, Amanda Anisimova, in three sets before bowing to an inspired Emma Raducanu 2-6, 2-6 in the final four.
Xinyu Wang looks to build some momentum before she plunges into action at Wimbledon. The Chinese lost to Madison Keys in straight sets 6-7, 1-6 in the first round of the 2026 Berlin Ladies Open.
The Matchup: Iva Jovic, who holds an impressive 11-2 record on grass, will march into her first-round match with Wang as a huge favorite. FanDuel currently lists her at -350 moneyline and -126 to cover -4.5 games.
Wang will need a big step up in her play to pull off an upset here. She carries a 1-3 record against top-20 players in 2026 and 13-30 against these players in her career.

Our Iva Jovic vs Xinyu Wang Prediction
Iva Jovic will cruise to a resounding straight-set win over Wang.
Jovic has the firepower and grass-court mastery to overwhelm Wang, who is 2-7 in her last 9 matches on the tour.
Jovic’s return game has also been creating a ton of break opportunities in this grass-court season. The American had converted 16 breakpoints through her first three matches in Queen’s before she ran out of fumes against Raducanu in the semifinals.
Wang can also pack power into her serves because of her 6-foot frame, but the lack of accuracy in these serves has prevented her from posting a high service hold and saved breakpoint percentages. This season, Wang has only saved 55.2 percent of breakpoints and averaged 2.2 aces per match, which are underwhelming numbers by tour standards.
Unless Wang can hold most of her serves and secure key breaks, she has no chance of winning even a set against Jovic in this match.
