On June 8, Zidansek will fight with Badosa in the 1/4 finals of Roland Garros. Who will be able to reach the semifinals of the TBSH for the first time in their career? Bookmakers are leaning towards the success of the Spanish tennis player.

Tamara Zidansek

Zidansek is the 85th racket of the world. She started the clay part of the season with a tournament in Bogota. There she reached the final, and lost the title to the Colombian from the second hundred of the world ranking. In Madrid and Rome, Tamara qualified, but won only one match in the main draw for two tournaments. At Roland Garros, the Slovenian started with an incredible victory over Andreescu in a match that lasted more than three hours: 6-7, 7-6, 9-7. After that, she easily beat Brengle, and in the 3rd round won a strong-willed victory over Sinyakova, losing the first game with a score of 0-6. In the 4th round, Zidansek dealt with Kirstya, giving her only one game on her serve: 7-6, 6-1.

Paula Badosa

Badosa is the 35th racket of the world. You should not be surprised at her reaching the 1/4 finals of Roland Garros, because she is in great shape: she reached the semifinals in Charleston-1 and Madrid, and also won the tournament in Belgrade-1. In Paris, she started with two easy wins over Kovinic and Davis, but in the 3rd round she experienced problems in the confrontation with Bogdan: 2-6, 7-6, 6-4. It is worth noting that in the second set she played matchball, and in the decisive game she lost with a score of 2-4.The 4th round match against Vondroushova was also difficult: 6-4, 3-6, 6-2.

Forecast from LiveResult.ru

Before Roland Garros 2021, Zidane had no success in major tournaments. She likes to play on the ground: in 2018, she reached the semifinals in Moscow, in 2019-the final at the tournament in Nuremberg, and this season she fought for the title in Bogota. Not bad, of course, but it's not enough to become a player of at least the TOP 30. Badosa herself is not yet among the TOP players, but her recent successes are impressive, and she is deservedly considered the favorite of the upcoming meeting. We agree with this, and we believe that Paula will surely win the match, although in one of the games Tamara is able to"show her teeth".
