When it comes to events the week after a Grand Slam, you often think of weaker fields and unexpected players going deep and that\u2019s exactly what the WTA Prague Open has provider. In fact, five of the last eight players left here are ranked outside the top 100. If that wasn\u2019t crazy enough to interest you, the highest two ranked players remaining are also playing one another in the quarterfinals. It really is an entertaining event, to say the least.<\/p>\n
Head-to-head: Kuzmova 1-0<\/strong><\/p>\n After a rough patch on the clay, which included five losses in a row, Martincova found a fair amount of form on the grass–which went under the radar to many–with a quarterfinal appearance in Birmingham and a third round appearance at Wimbledon before losing to eventual runner-up Karolina Pliskova. She\u2019s back up this good form moving on the hardcourts this week with two easy routine wins. Kuzmova\u2019s on the other hand has come into Prague with no form and although has also won her first two matches, both have been against players far from Martincova\u2019s quality, this should be routine for the Czech despite the head-to-head.
\nPrediction: Martincova in 2<\/em><\/p>\n
