It all comes down to Sunday at London, where Anna Blinkova faces Donna Vekic for the trophy. Donna Vekic is 6-4 across recent matches. Anna Blinkova limps in on a 3-match losing skid, just 3 wins in 10.
The rivalry is dead level: 1-1 across 2 matches.
Hold strength tells the story — 68.6% versus 61.5% on first-serve points in Vekic's favor. Blinkova is running on fumes after a brutal stretch of scheduling. Anything other than a Vekic win would rank among the bigger surprises of the week.
