Zheng Qinwen will try to sustain her improving form on grass against Clara Tauson in the second round of the 2026 Bad Homburg.
Current Form:
Zheng Qinwen survived Solana Sierra 7-5, 4-6, 6-4 to advance to the second round at Bad Homburg. Now ranked 153rd in the world, Zheng is trying to claw her way back into the elite ranks after missing a major portion of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026 due to a right elbow injury.
Clara Tauson ended her losing streak at seven matches after stunning French Open semifinalist Diana Shnaider 6-4, 6-4. It hasn’t been a positive season for the former world’s No.12, who has now fallen to No.25 in the world and compiled a 9-13 record.
Matchup: Tauson won her first encounter with Zheng 6-4, 3-6, 6-4 at the 2020 Figueira Da Foz almost six years ago.
Both players are struggling right now and are not particularly good on grass, adding another layer of intrigue to this duel.
Caesars Sportsbook lists Zheng at -135 and Tauson at +105 while setting the over/under at 22.5 games.

Our Qinwen Zheng vs Clara Tauson Prediction
Zheng Qinwen outduels Clara Tauson 6-4, 6-3.
Zheng may not be playing at a top-10 level right now, but she has won 2 out of 4 matches on grass.
Tauson also got a morale-boosting win over Diana Shnaider. However, the Russian already dropped a grass-court match in Berlin and seems to be struggling to transition to grass courts after reaching the semis at Roland Garros.
Zheng is winning 78 percent of her first serves and averaging 12 aces per match on grass this year. Meanwhile, Tauson is winning 67 percent of her first balls and averaging 5.9 aces across three matches this grass-court season.
If Zheng can properly execute her first serves and keep Tauson under constant pressure, she should comfortably win this match.
