Hamburg Predictions & Picks — July 24, 2026

A spot in the next round is at stake on Friday, when Alina Charaeva goes up against Anna Bondar in the Hamburg quarterfinal. Anna Bondar has won 5 of the last 10. Alina Charaeva comes in at 7 wins from the last ten.

This is the first career meeting between the two, which means no head-to-head baggage on either side of the net.

Anna Bondar is clearly higher-rated on clay — our number puts Bondar around 61%. Bondar should have enough here, though Charaeva has the tools to make the scoreboard uncomfortable.

A spot in the next round is at stake on Friday, when Anhelina Kalinina goes up against Tamara Korpatsch in the Hamburg quarterfinal. Anhelina Kalinina is 6-4 across recent matches. Tamara Korpatsch has won 5 of the last 10.

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

Neither the serve numbers nor the ratings separate these two by much, which is why our number stays close to even. Little separates them; Kalinina gets the nod on the finest of margins.

A spot in the next round is at stake on Friday, when Mayar Sherif goes up against Paula Badosa in the Hamburg quarterfinal. Paula Badosa has won 10 in a row and 10 of the last 10 overall. Mayar Sherif has won 10 in a row and 10 of the last 10 overall.

Paula Badosa has had the better of this rivalry, winning 1 of 1 against Mayar Sherif. On clay specifically it reads 1-0 Badosa — worth more than the overall number this week.

Badosa's 65.1% behind the first serve (against 58.9% for Sherif) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Sherif comes in off a compressed schedule; Badosa comes in off a compressed schedule. The edge belongs to Badosa — real, but not the kind you take for granted at this level.

Elina Avanesyan and Oleksandra Oliynykova meet in the quarterfinal at Hamburg on Friday. Oleksandra Oliynykova has won 6 of the last 10. Elina Avanesyan comes in at 6 wins from the last ten.

This is the first career meeting between the two, which means no head-to-head baggage on either side of the net.

Oleksandra Oliynykova is clearly higher-rated on clay — our number puts Oliynykova around 65%. Expect resistance, but the match-level math tilts clearly toward Oliynykova.
