E. Ruusuvuori - C. Alcaraz

I believe there is an interesting battle ahead, although the odds are oddly skewed in one direction, I wouldn't count out Pegula just yet. Rybakina is known to have advantages, but this court is different from Indian Wells, where Rybakina struggled. This court is more favorable for her, and I think she will create her own advantage with her quick points, as the ball bounces lower and gives her a better chance of avoiding long rallies, where Pegula can patiently outlast her opponents. In my opinion, Rybakina should triumph, but Pegula will need to put in a lot of effort to win a set on this court. It all depends on how well Rybakina is prepared and how Pegula handles her powerful shots.
