A spot in the next round is at stake on Thursday, when Anna Blinkova goes up against Nadia Podoroska in the Barranquilla round of 16. Nadia Podoroska is 3-7 across recent matches. Anna Blinkova comes in at 4 wins from the last ten.
Neither the serve numbers nor the ratings separate these two by much, which is why our number stays close to even. Blinkova comes in off a compressed schedule; Podoroska comes in off a compressed schedule. A tiebreak or two would surprise nobody, with Podoroska fractionally more likely to land the big points.
