Command Analysis

Kamilla Rakhimova

Current form
Rakhimova finished the last season at 61st place in the world ranking, which is her best result in her career. The Russian tennis player had a strong finish, won the title in Guadalajara, and consistently overcame one or two rounds at the last hard tournaments in Asia. At the final tournament in Jiujiang, Kamilla made it to the quarterfinals.
Professional qualities
Kamilla always strives to act as the number one player on the court, to dictate her terms of the game. With such an approach, a decent number of mistakes are inevitable. When the Russian is not in shape, she makes a lot of mistakes in the game, but when everything is going well for her, she is ready to defeat any opponent.

Suzan Lamens

Current form
Lamens had a real breakthrough in her game and results last season. The 25-year-old representative of the Netherlands had not had much success before, playing with variable results in not the most prestigious tournaments. However, in October in Osaka she made it from the qualification to the final and won the title. After that success there was another quarterfinal in Hong Kong, but overall, her results have noticeably declined.

Lamens tries to work reliably on the back line and hit a sharp ace whenever possible. Susan has a fairly strong first serve in her arsenal, but she cannot consistently serve high percentages of first balls.

In total, Lamens played 77 matches on tour in 2024 and won 50. Thanks to these results, Suzanne debuted in the top 100 and is now the 87th racket in the world.
