Ana Konjuh
Beatriz Haddad Maia and Ana Konjuh will meet in the first round of the 2022 US Open. Ana Konjuh is ranked 118th and Haddad Maia is ranked 15. The pair will play in New York from August 29 to September 11, and you can bet on their match using Bet365.
Konjuh is returning to the court after five months of layoff. Her first tournament since May will be the French Open, the second Grand Slam tournament of the season. She will face Carla Suarez Navarro in the first round. The former world No. 1 may even play on the opening day of the tournament.
Jelena Ostapenko
Jelena Ostapenko, who won the Rothesay International in Great Britain on Monday, has moved into the semifinals of the tournament. She won 6-3, 6-2 over No.14 seed Karolina Pliskova in just over two hours. Ostapenko has now won seven of her last eight games in singles and nine of her last 10 in doubles. She will now face Camila Giorgi, who beat Bulgarian Viktoriya Tomova, in the semifinals. Petra Kvitova also advanced with a 6-3, 6-4 win over Britain’s Harriet Dart.
Ostapenko has reached the quarterfinals of the Australian Open and Canadian Open, but has yet to win a Grand Slam title. In the 2017 Canadian Open, Ostapenko reached the final, where she lost to No. 5 Tatjana Maria. Ostapenko, ranked 39th, has beaten several top-ranked players, including Caroline Garcia and Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova.
Ana Konjuh and Ana Puig
Ana Konjuh, Ana Puig, and Haddad Maia are two promising Brazilian tennis players. They have already achieved success on the WTA Tour. Ana Konjuh reached the semifinals of the 2015 French Open, while Ana Puig reached the final of the WTA 500 tournament in Brisbane. Both are expected to compete in Grand Slams as early as 2022.
Ana Puig is a big deal in her native Puerto Rico, which has very little tennis tradition, but a strong sporting culture. She trained almost her entire life in Miami, so she has a “big fish in a small pond” attitude. She showed great competitiveness in narrow losses to Venus and Keber.
Bia Haddad
Bia Haddad, 26, is one of the most talented Brazilian tennis players. She is currently ranked 16th in the world by the International Women’s Tennis Association. This is the highest ranking for a Brazilian woman in history. Brazilian women’s tennis has been played since 1968. One of its most famous players was Maria Esther Bueno, who won eight Grand Slam titles in the 1950s and 1970s. Her Grand Slam titles were recognized as official WTA rankings in 1975, making her one of the most successful players in history.
Bia’s ranking will be updated on today’s rankings. It is the highest ranking a Brazilian athlete has attained since Maria Esther Bueno won the title in the 1960s, when world rankings did not exist.
