Garcia Rallies Past Van Uytvanck
Top seed Caroline Garcia rebounded from a set down to beat Alison Van Uytvanck in the second round on Thursday to move into the quarterfinals in Lyon.
A semifinalist last year, the world no. 5 is a top contender for the title this year. And she proved that against Van Uytvanck on Thursday, when she came roaring back into the contest and breezed past the Belgian in the final two sets.
Van Uytvanck broke the Frenchwoman twice during a dominant display in the first set, but Garcia demolished the world no. 76 over the next two sets, bageling her in the second and breaking her six consecutive times to win the contest 2-6, 6-0, 6-1.
Garcia had earlier beaten Tereza Martincová 6-4, 7-6 (7-4) in the first round on Tuesday. With the two wins, Garcia is now 8-2 in 2023. She had won both her matches at the United Cup, made it to the last eight in Adelaide-2 and then suffered a shock fourth round exit at the Australian Open after falling to Magda Linette. But she looks on course for an 11th career title in Lyon.
She played three finals and won all of them during an extremely successful 2022. Can she get a title early in 2023? She is three away from doing that at home this week.

Paolini Eases Past Andreev
So far it’s been an easy ride for Jasmine Paolini in the tournament. The world no. 66 cruised past Rebeka Masarova in the first round and then backed that win with another crushing victory on Thursday, defeating Russia’s Erika Andreeva in the Round of 16.
Paolini didn’t face a break point in the match, but broke the Russian twice in the first set and once in the second to score a 6-2, 6-3 victory and move into the quarterfinals.
She was broken once by Masarova in the first round, before overcoming the Spaniard 6-3, 6-2.
The 27-year-old Italian was also a quarterfinalist last year, but she was prevented from going beyond that stage by Dayana Yastremska. Can she make it to the final four this year?
Paolini had won just one of her four matches in the run-up to Lyon, but thanks to the two wins she is now 3-2 in the main draws and 3-3 overall this season. Her only other main draw win in 2023 had come in the first round in Hobart. She fell in the second round there and then exited the Australian Open following a first round defeat to Liudmilla Samsonova.
Can Paolini pull off a surprise win on Friday and keep her chances of a second WTA title alive? She had won her maiden title at the Slovenia Open in 2021. She reached a second career final in Transylvania last year, but finished runner-up to Anna Blinkova.
Garcia v Paolini Prediction and Tip
Garcia is looking dangerous. She is the higher ranked player, the top seed and also has a 3-0 record against the Italian. She will hold the psychological edge over Paolini and should win once again.
