Command Analysis

Linda Noskova

Current form
Last week in Cincinnati, Noskova failed to show anything, losing in the first round to Sun (4-6, 6-7). In Monterey, the Czech tennis player had a good opportunity to warm up in the first round, as she played against her partner Danilina (6-0, 6-1). In the second round, she had to put in much more effort to defeat Wang Xiyu (6-4, 7-6).
Professional qualities
Noskova tries to play first number, take the initiative in rallies and finish combinations with a powerful forehand. Plus, she has a strong first serve in her arsenal, which allows her to score many easy points.
Current indicators in the tour
Linda has not fully met expectations and betting tips for the season, but she has solid results on hard courts – 16 wins and seven losses. At the beginning of the year, Noskova made it to the semifinals in Brisbane and the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, where she beat the world's number one Iga Swiatek in the tournament grid.

Elina Svitolina

Current form
Last week in Cincinnati, Svitolina managed to get through two rounds with class, but she had no arguments against the heated Sabalenka (5-7, 2-6). In Monterrey, the Ukrainian tennis player started right from the second round, beating Avanesyan in two sets (6-4, 6-3). Despite a confident score, Elina gave up her serve twice, but was traditionally strong on the return, winning 47% of the points.
Professional qualities
Experience allows Svitolina to feel comfortable against any opponent, find successful tactical moves, and change her game during matches. We note her excellent technique, ability to change the rhythm, and thus throw off her opponents.

Svitolina returned to the tour quite successfully after the birth of her child, now she is already in 28th place and may well get back into the top 20 at least. On hard courts, she has 14 wins and seven losses this season. Among her achievements, we should note the final at the beginning of the year in Auckland, at that time she made it to the 1/8 finals of the Australian Open, where she played with Noskova - after three games, Elina was forced to withdraw from the game due to injury.
