Janice Tjen will try to take advantage of a +4.5-game cushion in her upcoming second-round battle with Anna Kalinskaya at the 2026 Washington D.C Open.
Current Form:
Janice Tjen is through to the second round of the 2026 Washington D.C Open, taking down Rebecca Sramkova 6-4, 6-2. Tjen conceded only two service games and broke Sramkova five times to seal the win. Tjen is 6-9 in tour-level hard-court matches in 2026.
Anna Kalinskaya blasted former top-10 Daria Kasatkina 6-4, 6-1 in the first round. Kalinskaya neutralized Kasatkina’s service game, converting 6 breakpoint chances off the back of 28 return points. The Russian holds a 10-7 record on hard courts in 2026.
The Matchup: Kalinskaya is the clear-cut favorite to win, but Tjen appears to be an intriguing option in the spread market, where she catches a +4.5-game cushion.

Our Janice Tjen vs Anna Kalinskaya Prediction
The Difference Maker: Tjen owns a 78.1 percent win rate on hard courts. She is a hard-court expert who can take down top-tier opponents on a good day.
Kalinskaya remains a solid bet to win and advance because of her solid 10-10 record against top-50 players and 7-6 slate in second-round matches in 2026.
What to Expect: Kalinskaya captures the win but not before fending off a spirited challenge from Tjen. Tjen will secure a handful of breakpoint conversions, though her 0-4 record against top-20 players in 2026 makes her a risky option in the moneyline market.
