S. Cirstea

Player Overview

Sorana Cirstea, a right-handed player with a career win percentage of 57.2%, has shown a robust performance recently, with a 66.3% win rate over the last two years. Although her Elo rating reflects a solid overall level at 2365, her recent form has stabilized at an impressive 80% win rate in her last ten matches, indicating she remains competitive. With a strong serve identity and a penchant for winning first serves, she poses a significant threat on the grass surface.

However, Cirstea's recent matches tell a different story. After a series of defeats at the WTA French Open, including a loss to Mirra Andreeva, she has struggled to find her rhythm. Without winning a set in her last five matches, Cirstea will need to turn the tide quickly. Facing Maddison Inglis, she must capitalize on her experience and adapt quickly to avoid a continuation of her recent struggles.
