In the first stage of the tournament, Kalinskaja faced off against Serbian player Stojanovic. The match was intense, with both players taking turns leading in the set. However, in the end, Kalinskaja took the lead and won the set 6:3.
In the second set, a tie-break was needed, but the upset did not happen - Kalinskaja won 2:0.
In the upcoming match, there may be some influence from their previous match on clay, which ended with a convincing win for Ana Peru - the Danish player only won three games in the entire match.
Even if the match is drawn out, I would be inclined to bet on Kalinskaja in both the first set and the match.

C. Tauson competed against the home player Watson. The first player took a 2:1 lead, but it took three sets for her to secure the win (losing the first set 2:6).
In their upcoming match, the previous year's match between these opponents on clay court may play a role. It ended with a convincing win for Ana Peru, with the Dane only able to win three games in the entire match.
Even if the match is prolonged, I would be inclined to bet on Kalinskaja in both the first set and the overall match.
The Challenger tournament in the USA. These tennis players played a couple of weeks ago, and in a very tough battle, the Japanese won. The tournament was also an ITF level event in the USA, and the Japanese won that as well. Now they meet again for the second time, and I don't believe it will be possible for the 34-year-old veteran to win against the younger player playing at home. Especially since this will already be the fourth match for the Japanese, as he also played in the qualifiers, while the American will only be playing his second.
Siniakova Katerina is showing signs of recovery in the grass season, with a decent win in the first round against Zheng and two good matches against Krueger and Kudermetova. She also put up a good fight against Rybakinai. As for Osaka, there is nothing particularly notable, as she had a poor performance in the first set against Samsonova and lost to the inconsistent Danilovic. She did manage to win against Navarro in two sets, but overall, her game seems average. She has been quite inconsistent lately, with a couple of unfinished matches at the beginning of the season due to injury.
