The in-form Rebecca Peterson opens her campaign in the WTA Angers Arena Loire Open against Romania’s Jaqueline Cristian on Wednesday.
Rebecca Peterson
The Swedish tennis pro has been in fine form as of late. She finished runner-up in consecutive tournaments before arriving in Angers. In the ITF event in Meitar, she lost to Mirra Andreeva in the final, and last week, she lost to Alycia Parks in the finals of the WTA Andorra Open.
Peterson has made it to six quarterfinals in 2022. However, her hunt for a title this season is still on. She will hope to have a deep run in the tournament and her solid runs in the last few tournaments will surely hold her in good stead.
Jaqueline Cristian
The 24-year-old made her Grand Slam debut this year at the Australian Open. She was ousted in the second round. Madison Keys. In the doubles event, she partnered with Andrea Petkovic and made it to the third round.
Cristian won her first ITF title in 2022 in France in September. She defeated Magali Kempen in the final to win her 10th ITF title in her career. Like Peterson, Cristian also played in the WTA Andorra Open. However, her run ended in the round of 32, after she lost to Poland’s Weronika Falkowska.
Head-to-Head and Prediction
Jaqueline Cristian has a 1-0 lead against Rebecca Peterson in the head-to-head scoreline. The Romanian player progressed at the Linz Open last year after Peterson retired while trailing 5-2 in their match in the round of 16.
Prediction: Rebecca Peterson to win in three sets.
