A spot in the next round is at stake on Wednesday, when Mccartney Kessler goes up against Renata Zarazua in the Memphis (Usa) round of 32. Mccartney Kessler is 4-6 across recent matches. Renata Zarazua has dropped 6 straight and sits at 2-8 over the last ten.

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

Kessler's 63% behind the first serve (against 57.1% for Zarazua) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Kessler should have enough here, though Zarazua has the tools to make the scoreboard uncomfortable.
