Sabalenka vs Gauff to decide the #RolandGarros champion.
Last 2 times they met, including the Madrid final a month ago, the outcome was significantly influenced by these key factors:
1. Gauff’s % of returns in play
2. Long rallies
3. “+1” performances
Keep a close eye on them today!
Aryna Sabalenka and Qinwen Zheng meet in the #RolandGarros quarters, just as it happened in Rome.
Zheng won that match due to:
1. Mental comfort from leading the score for first time in rivalry
2. Return position and performance
3. Down the line groundstrokes
Naomi Osaka’s decision to take a wild card at WTA 125 Saint-Malo paid off big time as she ended a 4-year title drought while clinching her first career title on clay.
Here's how the former #1 won it:

Probable that Sabalenka overpowers Andeeva once again but the teenager is improving by the week and her future is certainly looking very bright.

Break point conversion rates in both matches:
- Sabalenka 58%, 7-for-12
- Andreeva: 0%, 0-for-11
The world #1 also accumulated more winners and fewer unforced errors:
- Winners: Sabalenka 41 / Andreeva 33
- UFEs: Sabalenka 33 / Andreeva 44
Will Andreeva do better today?
#TennisParadise
Today will be the ultimate test to Mirra Andreeva’s recent growth. Sabalenka has already beaten her twice on hardcourts this season: 6-3 6-2 in Brisbane and 6-1 6-2 at the AO.
Both times, the teenager failed to break Sabalenka’s serve, going a combined 0-for-11 on break points.

Keys was a perfect 16-for-16 when delivering AD side T 1st serves.
With several well-executed Ad side “V” attacks, Sabalenka created a 13-point advantage in 3-shot rallies (26 to 13).
Keys ruled medium rallies (5-8 shots), finishing with a 27-17 score.

Zheng only missed 3 forehand returns (2 were in the first 2 points of the match) but she had trouble all day with Swiatek's bouncing serve and failed to apply any pressure.

Yesterday, we mentioned that a large part of Qinwen Zheng's win over Iga Swiatek at the Paris Olympics was due to an improved forehand return performance.
Final numbers show Zheng was far from replicating that performance in yesterday's loss to Swiatek.
#TennisParadise #BNPPO25
Two exciting semi-finals coming up in Indian Wells!
Keys has won her last 16 matches.
Andreeva has won her last 10 matches.
Sabalenka has won her last 16 matches on US hardcourts.
Swiatek has not dropped a set in her last 10 matches at Indian Wells.
#TennisParadise #BNPPO25
Last time they met, Zheng finally defeated Swiatek.
A big part of her gameplan was a focus on heavy/loopy, deep returns instead of offense. This helped control errors and limited early-rally attacks from Swiatek.
Can Zheng do it again and will it be effective on a hardcourt?
#TennisParadise #BNPPO25
Happy birthday!
