Our Venus Williams vs Ajla Tomljanovic Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Venus Williams covers the spread in a close loss to Ajla Tomljanovic 3-6, 6-4,6-4
Again, 2 of the 3 Williams’ losses this season went to the limit. At 45 years old, Williams is still making a point that she can still hang with the best on the tour, taking top-100 players Magda Linette and Olga Danilovic to three sets.
Can Venus Williams pull off an upset here? I am still skeptical about it. Can Tomljanovic give a good fight in this match? Definitely, she can.
Williams has the skills and experience to take down players outside the elite circle on the WTA Tour. It all now boils to her stamina, whether she has enough gas left in the tank to grind out her first tour win in 2026.
