Command Analysis
Anastasija Sevastova
LatviaCurrent form
Due to a ruptured cruciate ligament in her left knee, Sevastova did not compete on tour for more than a year. The return took place on April 17 at a not very prestigious tournament in Koper, Slovenia. As part of those competitions, Anastasia won one match, but could not finish the second match, there was a withdrawal. Apparently, she is not ready for serious stress yet.
Professional qualities
At her best, Sevastova was famous for her ability to work out to the fullest on the back line, due to her high speed, she could pull the most difficult balls, and more than once made crazy comebacks. Now, of course, it's hardly worth waiting for images of the best game from her right away, given the injury and the long absence of game practice.

In Madrid, Pavlyuchenkova needs to defend her ranking points from last year's third round.

Anastasia does not like to practice on the back line, she tries to tactically build practical jokes so as to quickly complete them, either with her own backhand or forcing her opponent to make a mistake. Her strong point is the ability to play tactically competently, to adapt to the style of play of any opponent.

Sevastova has not played on the tour for more than a year, played two matches against not the strongest opponents, and was forced to withdraw in the second meeting.
