Elena Rybakina vs Zheng Qinwen — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their QUARTERFINAL at the 2026 US Open. The World No. 1 ranking on one side, the most improbable run of the tournament on the other.Elena Rybakina is one win from the top of the game. The second seed and reigning Australian Open champion is GUARANTEED TO REPLACE ARYNA SABALENKA AS WORLD NO. 1 if she reaches the semifinals here. She has been overwhelming all fortnight and produced her best performance yet in the round of 16, overpowering Naomi Osaka 6-1, 6-4 in a rematch of their Toronto quarterfinal. Add the Canadian Open final and 42 wins in her last 50 hard-court matches, and she is the form player on this surface.Zheng Qinwen's run is one of the stories of the year. The Paris 2024 Olympic gold medallist and former World No. 4 fell to No. 121 after elbow surgery and had to come through QUALIFYING just to reach this main draw. She is now the FIRST QUALIFIER TO REACH THE US OPEN LAST EIGHT SINCE EMMA RADUCANU WON THE TITLE IN 2021 — and she has done it the hard way. Twice. She erased a 5-0 deficit and saved match point to beat Madison Keys 1-6, 7-6(3), 7-5, then fell 5-0 down AGAIN against Iga Swiatek before reeling off SEVEN STRAIGHT GAMES to win 7-5, 6-3 — against an opponent who led their head-to-head 7-1.That single previous loss for Swiatek? The Paris 2024 Olympic semifinal, where Zheng also came from behind. This is what she does.An eight-match winning streak and nothing to lose against the most powerful player in the draw with the No. 1 ranking on the line. Who reaches the semifinals?

US Open 2026 Day 7 delivered absolute chaos!
Iga Swiatek vs Zheng Qinwen — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open. A six-time Grand Slam champion against an Olympic gold medallist who had to QUALIFY just to get here. One of the great comeback stories of the year.Iga Swiatek is seeded eighth, unusually low for her, after an erratic season — though she found form to win the Canadian Open in Toronto, beating Elina Svitolina and reaching the final. In New York she has been grinding rather than gliding: she needed two tiebreaks to get past 25th seed Marie Bouzkova 7-6(3), 7-6(3), dominating both breakers to reach the last 16. The 2022 US Open champion is chasing a second title here, and her section has been the toughest in the draw all fortnight.Zheng Qinwen's story is remarkable. The Paris 2024 Olympic gold medallist and former World No. 4 fell to No. 121 after elbow surgery and a year of stop-start rehab — she had to come through QUALIFYING just to reach this main draw. Now she's on a SIX-MATCH WINNING STREAK and back in the US Open round of 16 for the first time in two years, after producing the comeback of the tournament: from 5-0 DOWN in the deciding set and SAVING MATCH POINT against 22nd seed Madison Keys, she won the final SEVEN GAMES to take it 1-6, 7-6(3), 7-5.Two months ago Zheng lost to Alexandra Eala in the first round in Washington. This is a completely different player. Swiatek is the heavy favourite on paper — but nobody in this draw has more momentum or less to lose.
Alexandra Eala vs Iva Jovic — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their THIRD ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. Two of the brightest young players in the game, close friends off court, with a place in the second week of a Grand Slam on the line.Alex Eala has been close to flawless in New York. The 17th seed — the highest-seeded Filipina in Grand Slam history — has dropped just eight games in two rounds, sweeping American qualifier Mary Stoiana 6-1, 6-2 and then avenging her Strasbourg loss to Oleksandra Oliynykova 6-1, 6-4. It continues the summer that changed her career: the first WTA singles title ever won by a player from the Philippines at the DC Open in Washington, past Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina, Naomi Osaka and world No. 3 Jessica Pegula, then a Toronto round of 16 and a place inside the world's top 20.Iva Jovic is no gentle draw. The 14th seed reached a career-high World No. 14 in August and is 31-16 on the season, with a maiden Grand Slam quarterfinal at the Australian Open — where she became the youngest American woman to reach the last eight in Melbourne since Venus Williams in 1998 — plus the third round at Roland-Garros and the fourth round at Wimbledon. She survived Magdalena Frech 7-5, 6-3 before beating Francesca Jones 6-4, 6-4.And here's the problem for Eala: Jovic OWNS this head-to-head. She won 6-4, 6-2 in the first round of the French Open and 6-2, 6-2 at Queen's — and she beat Eala again 6-3 in the "Stars of the Open" exhibition on Arthur Ashe just last week. Jovic says she's "super excited" for it. Eala has never taken a set off her.The winner reaches the second week. Can Eala finally solve her friend?
Alexandra Eala was IMPRESSIVE. Full post-match reaction and analysis after the No. 17 seed dismantled Oleksandra Oliynykova 6-1, 6-4 to reach the THIRD ROUND of the 2026 US Open.This was the revenge match, and Eala left nothing to chance. Oliynykova was the one player in this section with a win over her — the Ukrainian beat her 3-6, 7-5, 6-3 in the first round of the WTA 500 in Strasbourg back in May. Four months later, on Grand Slam centre stage, Eala flipped it comprehensively, racing through the opening set for the loss of a single game and closing it out in straight sets.It means back-to-back straight-sets wins in New York after her 6-1, 6-2 dismissal of American qualifier Mary Stoiana in round one, and a place in the third round of a Grand Slam. She arrived here as the highest-seeded Filipina in Grand Slam history at No. 17, off the summer that changed everything — the first WTA singles title ever won by a player from the Philippines at the DC Open in Washington, past Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina, Naomi Osaka and world No. 3 Jessica Pegula, followed by a Toronto round of 16 and a rise into the world's top 20.In this video: full breakdown of the win, what she's doing better than she was in May, everything she said afterwards, and a look ahead at a third round that could produce one of the matches of the first week.
Alexandra Eala vs Oleksandra Oliynykova — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their SECOND ROUND match at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. Alexandra vs Oleksandra, and Eala has a score to settle.Alex Eala is through in style. The highest-seeded Filipina in Grand Slam history at No. 17 opened her campaign by sweeping aside American qualifier Mary Stoiana 6-1, 6-2, reaching the US Open second round for the second straight year. It caps a summer that produced the first WTA singles title ever won by a player from the Philippines — at the DC Open in Washington, past Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina, Naomi Osaka and world No. 3 Jessica Pegula — plus a round-of-16 run in Toronto and a place inside the world's top 20.Oleksandra Oliynykova is a genuinely awkward next assignment. The Ukrainian, whose career-high sits around World No. 65, came through a solid first round against American wild card Reese Brantmeier 6-4, 6-4, and she brings something almost nobody else in this section does: a win over Eala. She beat her 3-6, 7-5, 6-3 in the first round of the WTA 500 in Strasbourg in May, in a tight three-setter.So Eala leads nothing here — Oliynykova leads the head-to-head 1-0. That was four months and an entire career transformation ago. This is the payback match, with a probable third-round meeting against No. 14 seed Iva Jovic waiting for the winner, and Coco Gauff beyond that.

Alexandra Eala vs Mary Stoiana — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FIRST ROUND match at the 2026 US Open at Flushing Meadows, New York. History on one side of the net, a first Grand Slam main draw on the other.Alex Eala arrives in New York as the HIGHEST-SEEDED FILIPINA IN GRAND SLAM HISTORY, seeded No. 17 after the summer that changed her career. She became the first player from the Philippines to win a WTA singles title at the DC Open in Washington — beating Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina, Naomi Osaka and world No. 3 Jessica Pegula along the way — then backed it up with a run to the round of 16 in Toronto and a career-high ranking inside the world's top 20. Her section is steep from here: Iva Jovic potentially in round three, Coco Gauff in the round of 16, Mirra Andreeva in the quarters. But it starts here.Mary Stoiana is the American qualifier standing in her way, and she has earned it the hard way. The 23-year-old from Southbury, Connecticut — a Texas A&M product with a career-high ranking of No. 173 — came through qualifying by beating Katie Swan and then edging Yue Yuan 6-3, 4-6, 6-4 in the final round. She has reached Q2 in Melbourne and Q3 in Paris this year; this is her breakthrough.They have met once before, on the ITF circuit: Eala won 7-5, 6-2 at the W100 in Landisville, Pennsylvania in August 2024. Two years and a very different Alex Eala later, can Stoiana make it interesting on the biggest stage of her life?
Alexandra Eala vs Amanda Anisimova — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their THIRD ROUND clash at the 2026 Cincinnati Open (WTA 1000) at the Lindner Family Tennis Center in Mason, Ohio. The first career meeting between the Filipina history-maker and one of the biggest ball-strikers in the game.Alex Eala arrives with the highest seeding of her career. Seeded 17th after a summer that produced her maiden WTA title in Washington — where she beat Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina, Naomi Osaka and Jessica Pegula — and a round-of-16 run in Toronto, the 21-year-old is now firmly inside the top 20. She reached the third round in Cincinnati when Elena-Gabriela Ruse retired with a right foot injury at 6-1, 3-0, in a match twice interrupted by rain and lightning. That means fresh legs and only 40-odd minutes of tennis in her racquet.Amanda Anisimova is the ninth seed and World No. 10, and the danger is obvious. She hit a career-high World No. 3 in January 2026 and reached the Australian Open quarterfinals, a Dubai semifinal, and the fourth round at both Indian Wells and Miami — though injury, form and a brief coaching split have made the rest of the season a grind at 17-10. She looked sharp in her opener, dispatching Zeynep Sonmez 6-2, 6-3.They have never played. Anisimova's flat, first-strike power against Eala's lefty variety and the confidence of the best month of her career. Who reaches the round of 16?
Alexandra Eala vs Belinda Bencic — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 National Bank Open (WTA 1000 Canadian Open) in Toronto. The hottest player on tour against a former champion of this event. First career meeting.Alex Eala's summer has turned into something historic. Days after becoming the FIRST FILIPINA to win a WTA singles title — beating Jessica Pegula 4-6, 6-4, 6-0 in the DC Open final, having already knocked out Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina and Naomi Osaka — the World No. 20 has kept rolling in Toronto. She survived a three-set battle with giant-killer Caty McNally 6-3, 5-7, 6-4 on Saturday night to extend her winning streak to SEVEN, the longest of her career, and reach the round of 16.Belinda Bencic is the sternest test yet. The No. 12 seed and World No. 14 is an Olympic gold medalist and a former champion at this very tournament, and she has the kind of flat, early, redirecting baseline game that gives everyone problems. She beat Sloane Stephens 6-3, 6-1 before surviving an absolute war with Taylor Townsend — 3 hours and 24 minutes — to get here.They have never played. Both are tired. Both are dangerous. Who reaches the quarterfinals?
Alexandra Eala vs Caty McNally — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their THIRD ROUND clash at the 2026 National Bank Open (WTA 1000 Canadian Open) in Toronto. The Washington champion against the woman who just took out the Wimbledon champion. First career meeting.Alex Eala arrives in Toronto as the hottest player on tour. Days after becoming the FIRST FILIPINA to win a WTA singles title — beating Jessica Pegula 4-6, 6-4, 6-0 in the DC Open final after knocking out Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Elina Svitolina and Naomi Osaka — the 21-year-old is now World No. 20 and seeded 25th here. She extended her winning streak to six with a 6-1, 4-6, 6-2 win over Alycia Parks in the second round. The question is simple: how much is left in the tank?Caty McNally is the draw's disruptor. Ranked No. 70 after one of the great ranking climbs in recent memory — she was outside the top 1000 in September 2024 — the American just stunned sixth seed and Wimbledon champion Linda Noskova 7-6(5), 6-1. It was her second career top-10 win and her 22nd tour-level victory of the season, already a career high. Her doubles-honed hands, variety and returning make her a genuinely awkward opponent for anyone.They have never played each other. Momentum versus momentum. Who reaches the round of 16?
Alex Eala won the DC Open by going through Qinwen Zheng, Leylah Fernandez, Naomi Osaka, Elina Svitolina, and Jessica Pegula, and became the first Filipino player to win a WTA singles title. This one is a solo pod, recorded late after a work day, about what that week actually looked like from the ground.Inside: the TikTok about Eala's Miami run that started This Week in Tennis, the strange gap between a huge fanbase and a thin trophy case, the rain delay that wiped a set and handed her a clean slate on Monday, and Pegula's very generous explanation of why that slow lefty serve is so hard to attack.Then the bigger argument. The Tennis Channel desk sitting out in the open, an hour of Naomi Osaka just hanging out with fans, an ice cream truck a few feet away, and what that says about where the sport feels healthiest right now. Plus Fritz on the safety break, Rafa Jódar on the weekly reset, and the Canada attendance question.Also, Ground Pass is credentialed at the US Open.

HISTORY. Alexandra Eala has become the FIRST FILIPINA — and the first player from the Philippines — to win a WTA Tour singles title, beating world No. 3 and top seed Jessica Pegula 4-6, 6-4, 6-0 in the final of the 2026 Mubadala Citi DC Open in Washington, D.C.Full recap, match breakdown and reaction to the biggest moment in Philippine tennis history.The final began on Sunday, August 2, and was suspended by heavy rain and lightning with Pegula leading 6-4, 1-2. When play resumed at midday on Monday, August 3, a completely different Alex Eala walked back onto Stadium Court. She broke back, took the second set 6-4, and then swept the decider 6-0 — a bagel against the World No. 3 — closing it out in 1 hour and 45 minutes on court.The run to get there was extraordinary. The 21-year-old beat 2024 Olympic gold medalist Qinwen Zheng from a set and a break down, ended defending champion and No. 7 seed Leylah Fernandez 6-2, 7-6(1), took out No. 2 seed Elina Svitolina 6-3, 6-4, and dismantled four-time Grand Slam champion and No. 3 seed Naomi Osaka 6-4, 6-2 — before finishing the job against Pegula. Three seeds, an Olympic champion and a Grand Slam champion in five matches.Eala arrived in Washington ranked No. 28. She leaves it at a career-high World No. 20, inside the top 20 for the first time, with 500 ranking points and a first tour-level trophy after her Eastbourne heartbreak in 2025.
Naomi Osaka vs Alexandra Eala — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the 2026 Mubadala Citi DC Open SEMIFINAL in Washington, D.C. A four-time Grand Slam champion chasing her first WTA final in five years, against a 21-year-old having the week of her life. They have never played each other before.Alex Eala's run at Rock Creek Park has been extraordinary. The World No. 28 came from a set and a break down to beat Olympic gold medalist Qinwen Zheng 4-6, 6-4, 6-1, then survived 1-5 in the second set to take out defending champion Leylah Fernandez 6-2, 7-6(1) — and capped it by dismantling No. 2 seed Elina Svitolina 6-3, 6-4 in the quarterfinals, repeating her Berlin win over the Ukrainian. That's her sixth top-10 win of 2026 and a third WTA semifinal of the season. A first WTA 500 final is one match away.Naomi Osaka, the No. 3 seed and World No. 13, is quietly building the best stretch of her comeback: 21-8 on the season, a Bad Homburg final on grass last month, and 10 wins in her last 12 matches. She reached her first Washington semifinal by grinding past Elisabetta Cocciaretto 4-6, 6-4, 6-3, having earlier advanced when Ashlyn Krueger retired. Osaka has not made a WTA final since the 2021 Australian Open — this is the closest she has come.First-ever meeting. Osaka's power and free points off the serve against Eala's lefty variety and the belief of a player who has beaten three big names in five days. Who reaches the final?
Jessica Pegula vs Alexandra Eala — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the 2026 Mubadala Citi DC Open FINAL in Washington, D.C. Sunday, August 2, on Stadium Court at Rock Creek Park. A three-time Washington finalist against a 21-year-old chasing the first WTA singles title of her career.Alex Eala's week has become the story of the summer. The World No. 28 beat Olympic gold medalist Qinwen Zheng from a set and a break down, ended defending champion Leylah Fernandez's title defense 6-2, 7-6(1), dismantled No. 2 seed Elina Svitolina 6-3, 6-4, and then took apart four-time Grand Slam champion Naomi Osaka 6-4, 6-2 in their first career meeting. Three straight-set wins in a row to close it out. Three seeded players gone. Her first WTA 500 final — and a first tour-level title on the line after the Eastbourne heartbreak of 2025.Jessica Pegula is the top seed, World No. 3, and the most complete player left. She beat No. 4 seed Diana Shnaider 7-5, 6-4 in 87 minutes to reach her fourth final of 2026, a season that already includes titles in Dubai — her fourth WTA 1000 — and Charleston. She is chasing a third Washington crown.The head-to-head favors the American: Pegula leads 1-0, edging Eala 7-6(3), 5-7, 6-3 in the 2025 Miami semifinals. That was 16 months ago, and Eala is a very different player now. Can she finish the fairytale?
Alexandra Eala vs Elina Svitolina — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for the 2026 Mubadala Citi DC Open QUARTERFINAL in Washington, D.C. Two seasons colliding: a 21-year-old at a career-high, and a 31-year-old top-10 veteran who has been the model of consistency all year.Alex Eala has been the story of the week at Rock Creek Park. The World No. 28 rallied from a set and a break down to beat Olympic gold medalist Qinwen Zheng 4-6, 6-4, 6-1 in the first round, then saved a 1-5 deficit in the second set to knock out defending champion Leylah Fernandez 6-2, 7-6(1) — two marquee names in 48 hours, and a first DC Open quarterfinal.Standing across the net is No. 2 seed Elina Svitolina, World No. 10, 36-10 on the season with a 20-5 hard-court record and finals in Auckland and Rome. She came through a scrappy 7-6(4), 6-4 win over Polina Kudermetova — with nine double faults — and now gets a rematch she openly called "a new challenge."And that's the hook: Eala leads the head-to-head 1-0. She beat Svitolina 6-3, 6-4 on grass in Berlin in June. This is their first meeting on hard court, and Svitolina has had six weeks to solve her.
Alexandra Eala vs Qinwen Zheng — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their blockbuster FIRST ROUND clash at the 2026 Mubadala Citi DC Open (Washington Open), July 27 – August 2, 2026, on the outdoor hard courts of the William H.G. FitzGerald Tennis Center in Washington, D.C.This is the draw everyone circled. Alex Eala arrives at a career-high World No. 28 after a breakout grass season — a WTA 125 title in Birmingham, a semifinal run in Berlin with two top-10 scalps, and a stunning Wimbledon fourth-round run that included beating defending champion Iga Swiatek. Qinwen Zheng, the Paris 2024 Olympic gold medalist and former World No. 4, enters on a wildcard, now ranked outside the top 100 as she rebuilds from July 2025 elbow surgery and a stop-start return to the tour.Zheng leads the head-to-head 1-0, winning their only previous meeting 6-1, 6-7(5), 6-3 in the 2023 Asian Games semifinal. Three years on, the roles have almost completely reversed. Who wins in Washington?

The grass court season has officially begun—and there's no time to catch your breath after that epic Alcaraz vs. Sinner Roland Garros final! Join Joel, Kim, and Chris at Tennis Weekly HQ as they dive into a jam-packed first week of action on the lawns. From Tatjana Maria's fairytale run as a qualifier to win the first WTA event at Queen's in over 50 years, to Elise Mertens saving 11 match points in the Netherlands, there's no shortage of drama. Is Maria one of the last true grass court specialists? And what makes her so tricky for power players like Keys and Rybakina?The trio also breaks down Taylor Fritz's continued dominance over Zverev in Stuttgart, Emma Raducanu's headline-grabbing claim that she's “not playing for money,” and the LTA's push for prize money parity at Queen's by 2029. Plus, there's a fresh round of Par for the Courts, and a heated Mailbag debate over Qinwen Zheng's suspicious shoe malfunctions or whether it's just a bit of bad PR for the Nike trainer department.

It's a milestone moment at Tennis Weekly HQ as we celebrate our 500th episode! Join us for a special edition with Joel, Kim and Chris on hand to look back on all the events from Week 2 at the Italian Open plus look ahead to the French Open. In Rome, the electric rivalry between Jannik Sinner and Carlos Alcaraz reignited once again, with Carlitos emerging victorious to stop the Italian's 26 match winning streak. Jasmine Paolini thrilled the home crowd by doing the singles and doubles double while Coco Gauff came up just short again in another clay final and Sabalenka suffered a straight sets surprise to Qinwen Zheng.Off the court, Novak Djokovic made headlines by ending his coaching partnership with Andy Murray after just six months, and the Laver Cup revealed fresh names for 2025, including Holger Rune and João Fonseca who are set to make their debut in San Francisco. The gang also reflect on some of their favourite moments of the podcast as they hit 500 (Venus Williams! Timea Bacsinszky! Joel at Glastonbury!) and reveal the winners of the Rafael Nadal 'The Warrior' book competition. With 500 events also underway in Strasbourg and Hamburg, Joel ponders whether this is one of the best weeks on the tour to pick up some big and easy ranking points if you are an out of form player (ahem, Andrey Rublev).

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit dem Turnier aus Rom. Hier konnte Carlos Alcaraz seine Ausgangsposition vor Rolland Garros nochmal verbessern und Jasmine Paolini den bisher größten Titel ihrer Karriere gewinnen. Paolini spielte gutes wenn auch kein überragendes Tennis in Rom und doch manövrierte sie sich immer wieder aus schwierigen Situationen raus. So stand am Ende ein Sieg im Finale gegen Coco Gauff. Im Viertelfinale hatte Paolini ein fast schon sicher verlorenes Match gegen Diana Shnaider umgebogen. Auch Coco Gauff war auf dem Weg ins Endspiel an einer sehr engen Partie beteiligt.

Zheng's serve has been on shaky footing and this should be a much closer match up than the odds would indicate. Next I go to a day game at Wrigley Field. I am expecting Justin Steele to allow higher than 2.0 earned runs vs the Diamondbacks. The D'Backs are one of the best teams in the Majors against lefties and Steele is expected to play a lot of innings. This is a pure numbers play. Lastly, I am fading a young Dodgers pitcher, Gavin Stone. The righty is facing the Red Sox who are one of the hottest teams in baseball, and one of the most potent against right handed pitchers. I expect Stone to allow higher than 2.5 earned runs.These three plays come together for a 6.3x multiplierThe Daily Do(n)g Squad is Back!My Underdog Home Run Flex play includes:Juan SotoTrea TurnerJose RamirezThis flex play returns 67.5x your money if it goes 3/3 and 9x if 2/3 selections go yard!Make sure you are subscribed to shorts or are following me on twitter, I will have a Freaky Friday promo slip released in the afternoon!

The Daily Dog is your home for Underdog picks forThursday. Each day host Britton Hess gives you his favorite Underdog plays for MLB, tennis, UFC, NFL and more! Subscribe for your Daily Dog! Today's show features Underdog Picks for Thursday, July 18th in ATP and WTA tennis.The show slip features three Underdog picks with a 3.57x multiplier.Starting off in Hamburg Germany where defending champion Alexander Zverev is taking on Hubert Gaston. I believe Zverev will take care of business in straight sets. Next I found value in Palermo with Jaqueline Cristian squaring off with Lucia Bronzetti. I think we see a prolonged match, if that's the case Cristian will have a total games played higher than 21.5. Lastly, I go back to Palermo for the final women's match of the day, Qinwen Zheng vs Petra Martic. I think Zheng steam rolls her out of form opponent and wins in straight sets like big Alexander Zverev. These three plays come together for a 3.57x multiplier! New to Underdog Fantasy?
