Karolina Pliskova vs Donna Vekic: Preview

World No. 6 Karolina Pliskova battled a slump early in the 2021 season as she struggled to deliver deep, penultimate-round performances. It wasn’t until the clay swing that she started to play like her former self, starting with a quarterfinal run in the WTA Stuttgart Open. She reached the finals at Wimbledon last month but had to settle for second place after losing to Ashleigh Barty in a thrilling three-set match.

Former World No. 19 Donna Vekic started her run in Montreal with a clinical 6-1, 6-2 win over Alison Van Uytvanck. Currently ranked 56th, Vekic arrived for the competition with a win-loss tally of 9-9 in 2021. Most recently, she played in the 2021 Silicon Valley Classic in San Jose where she lost to Yulia Putintseva in the first round.
