Siniakova&#8217;s volleying skills due to her doubles prowess definitely helps her game on grass, although she&#8217;s known to have successful tournaments on all surfaces. While Rodina seems to be improving in form after a hiatus, Siniakova should get through this.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Siniakova in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"NRRnjK91Tyl1s_qriDa9PA\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1494312248\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'NRRnjK91Tyl1s_qriDa9PA',sig:'aHa3ezZCX79pX1-DwRsyz5FrdLham-uGmtYKpmp_jZQ=',w:'594px',h:'396px',items:'1494312248',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Mayar Sherif vs Lucia Bronzetti<\/h4>\n<h4>Head-to-head: First meeting<\/h4>\n<p>Slight upset alert, as Sherif definitely struggled in her first-round match this week. Pulling through late in the third set against Freidsam, she&#8217;ll have to play better and shorten matches. Especially a week before a Grand Slam, long matches have the ability to create long-term struggles with injury or fatigue. Bronzetti has an exciting game new to the tour, and she could very well cause an upset here.<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Bronzetti in 3<\/em><\/p>\n<p>[cta id=4014 type=cta]<\/p>\n<h4>Leylah Fernandez vs Anna Blinkova<\/h4>\n<h4>Head-to-head: Fernandez 1-0<\/h4>\n<p>After losing a multitude of ranking points at the <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/french-open\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">French Open<\/a>, Fernandez needs to rebound and regain a lot of these points soon. She looked great in her first round match, cruising through 6-0 6-1. Blinkova has a very hit-or-miss game, exploiting on opponent&#8217;s weaknesses well. This has helped the Russian become a great upset specialist, taking out Caroline Garcia in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=CPJPyO_vfFY\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Paris<\/a> last month. However, Fernandez has a slightly higher ceiling and should come through an upset (by ranking).<br \/>\n<em>Prediction: Fernandez in 2<\/em><\/p>\n<p><a id=\"WPTYyFpGQKpP5mWEark3sg\" class=\"gie-single\" href=\"http:\/\/www.gettyimages.com\/detail\/1251863881\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color:#a7a7a7;text-decoration:none;font-weight:normal !important;border:none;display:inline-block;\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Embed from Getty Images<\/a><script>window.gie=window.gie||function(c){(gie.q=gie.q||[]).push(c)};gie(function(){gie.widgets.load({id:'WPTYyFpGQKpP5mWEark3sg',sig:'OoGA1IUDUuT31rjqxk7uCQJEK_EEI-RuoARD2MIsuJc=',w:'594px',h:'354px',items:'1251863881',caption: true ,tld:'com',is360: false })});<\/script><script src='\/\/embed-cdn.gettyimages.com\/widgets.js' charset='utf-8' async><\/script><\/p>\n<h4>Iga \u015awi\u0105tek vs Jil Teichmann<\/h4>\n<h4>Head-to-head: Swiatek 2-0<\/h4>\n<p>Teichmann&#8217;s game is unfortunately way off from where it used to be. The Swiss&#8217; forehand can do a lot of damage on a fast court, but she hasn&#8217;t been able to work points well and can often go down in a sea of unforced errors. In a one-sided matchup, Teichmann has only won five games total against Swiatek in two matches. Meanwhile, the Pole absolutely needs matches going into Wimbledon. A lack of matches played into Swiatek&#8217;s shocking loss to Cornet at <a href=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/tennis\/2022\/07\/02\/alize-cornet-snaps-iga-swiatek-37-match-winning-streak-at-wimbledon\/\" target=\"_blank\" target=\"_self\">Wimbledon<\/a>, so winning a 250 here will absolutely help her confidence next week.<br \/>\n<i>Prediction:\u00a0\u015awi\u0105tek in 2<\/i><\/p>\n<p><em>Main Photo Credit: Susan Mullane-USA TODAY Sports<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The remainder of the second round at the WTA 250 in Bad Homburg takes place on Day 4, featuring none other than World No. 1 Iga Swiatek.
