Command Analysis

Elena Rybakina

Elena Rybakina was not so successful on clay before the start of Roland Garros. Kazakhstani player participated only in Madrid tournament, where she was beaten by Mertens in the second round (6:7, 5:7). Nonetheless, Elena blossomed at Paris and advanced into the quarter-final.
Before the round of 16 Elena had a relatively easy draw - Jacquemot, Hibino and Vesnina. All of those players were beaten and none of them managed to get more than five games from Elena. But young player had a much more serious challenge in the round of 16 - a match against Serena Williams. Elena wasn't scared of her famous opponent at all and eventually secured a victory in straingt sets (6:3, 7:5), as we expected in our prediction for this encounter.
