Karolina Pliskova will try to assert her grass-court mastery over Marie Bouzkova in the semis of the 2026 Nottingham Open.
Current Form:
For the first time in her career, Marie Bouzkova earned a semifinal appearance in a grass-court tournament after topping former Queen’s Club champion and Wimbledon Open semifinalist Tatjana Maria 7-5, 6-0. Bouzkova is 3-3 on the grass this year, winning 68 percent of her first balls and converting 45 percent of breakpoint chances.
After reaching the quarterfinals at Queen’s Club last week, Pliskova is making another deep run at the WTA 250 Nottingham Open. The former world’s No.1 toppled Talia Gibson 7-5, 6-4 in the quarterfinals. Pliskova is also 3-3 on grass in 2026.
Bouzkova, who is 7 years younger than Pliskova, will walk onto the court as a slight favorite at -125 moneyline. However, the -105 underdog Pliskova has a significant advantage in experience and grass-court mastery.

Our Karolina Pliskova vs Marie Bouzkova Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Karolina Pliskova leans on her experience to beat Marie Bouzkova.
Marie Bouzkova is playing her best tennis on grass, but Pliskova presents a major hurdle in her quest to win a title on this surface.
Pliskova, a former Nottingham winner and three-time grass-court champion, is proving to everybody that she still has what it takes to win at this level at the age of 34.
Bouzkova has only conceded four service games in her last six grass-court matches. However, she should prepare for a rougher match against Pliskova, who is one of the best returners in this grass-court season with a 45.2 percent breakpoint conversion rate.
This All-Czech semifinal could easily go three sets, with both players playing tremendously well this week. Still, the battle-tested Pliskova remains a solid pick to come out on top of this matchup.
