The World No.81 Leylah Fernandez has the best North American hardcourt swing record. In fact, she is still remembered for the epic US Open final run in 2021. The final play against the then qualifier Emma Raducanu is still considered one of the most surprising final matchups in the game’s history. Even though Fernandez didn’t have a downfall as steep as Raducanu, she has never been able to play in another final in any of the Grand Slams.

Her next best Grand Slam tournament is the French Open 2022 where she reached the last-8. The 29-year-old Danielle Collins had her best season in 2022 where she was able to reach the career-best ranking of 7. Currently ranked at World number 48, Collins will be trying to peak in this north hard court season with an eye on the US Open title. Her best-ever record in a Grand Slam is the runner-up position in Australian Open 2022.

This match-up has never happened before. It will be interesting to see how the 20-year-old Canadian will have the crowd support while facing the American former World number 7. It was the first time since Collins has beaten 4 players in a row after her Australian Open 2022 run. So she has the momentum lately to face the young Canadian.

Prediction: Leylah Fernandez to win in three sets.
