Tamara Korpatsch vs. Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva

A spot in the next round is at stake on Tuesday, when Tamara Korpatsch goes up against Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva in the Hamburg round of 32. Tamara Korpatsch is 5-5 across recent matches. Victoria Jimenez Kasintseva limps in on a 7-match losing skid, just 2 wins in 10.

There is no history here: this is their first tour-level meeting.

Tamara Korpatsch simply rates much higher on clay, and our number follows from it. Kasintseva needs several things to break right at once; the percentages say they usually don't.

Pick: Korpatsch

Win probability: 83% Korpatsch · Sets: 2 (62%) · most likely score 2-0 (53%)

Leyre Romero Gormaz vs. Veronika Erjavec

A spot in the next round is at stake on Tuesday, when Leyre Romero Gormaz goes up against Veronika Erjavec in the Hamburg round of 32. Veronika Erjavec limps in on a 4-match losing skid, just 5 wins in 10. Leyre Romero Gormaz limps in on a 2-match losing skid, just 7 wins in 10.

The ledger favors Veronika Erjavec, 3-0 across their 3 meetings with Leyre Romero Gormaz.

Neither the serve numbers nor the ratings separate these two by much, which is why our number stays close to even. Expect resistance, but the match-level math tilts clearly toward Erjavec.

Pick: Erjavec

Win probability: 61% Erjavec · Sets: 3 (43%) · most likely score 2-0 (36%)

✗ Pick wrongMissed it — and it stays on the record. We had Veronika Erjavec at 61%, but Leyre Romero Gormaz won 6-2 6-2.

Alina Charaeva vs. Sara Sorribes Tormo

Alina Charaeva and Sara Sorribes Tormo meet in the round of 32 at Hamburg on Tuesday. Alina Charaeva is 6-4 across recent matches. Sara Sorribes Tormo limps in on a 3-match losing skid, just 4 wins in 10.

The two have never played — a first meeting always adds a layer of uncertainty the numbers can't fully capture.

The serve is where this match separates: Charaeva has been winning 65.3% of first-serve points to Tormo's 55.7%, and on clay that gap compounds fast. This one is close to a coin flip, and the lean toward Charaeva is exactly that — a lean.

Sinja Kraus leads the head-to-head 1-0, and history has a way of mattering in matchups like this one. On clay specifically it reads 1-0 Kraus — worth more than the overall number this week.

Neither the serve numbers nor the ratings separate these two by much, which is why our number stays close to even. A tiebreak or two would surprise nobody, with Semenistaja fractionally more likely to land the big points.
