Karolina Muchova eyes a sweeping grass-court debut as she takes on veteran Zhang Shuai in the first round of the Berlin Ladies Open.
Karolina Muchova kicks off her grass-court campaign against Zhang Shuai. The Czech sets her focus on getting better results on grass following a third-round exit at Roland Garros. Muchova holds a 24-7 record on the WTA Tour this season.
Zhang Shuai will be competing in her second grass-court tournament this year at the 2026 Berlin Ladies Open. Similar to what she did at the HSBC Championship in Queen’s Club, Zhang, who earlier made it into the main draw of the 2026 HSBC Championships as a qualifier, also followed the same route to enter the main draw of this WTA 500 event, picking up wins over Milena Steinkamp 6-3, 6-2 and Magdalena Frech 6-2, 6-4 in the qualifiers.
