Samsonova Will Aim to Impress in N.Y.
The WTA Tour has seen quite a few surprise winners this season and one of them is Russia’s Ludmilla Samsonova who caused five upsets in a row to win the German Open title in June.
Coming through as a qualifier, Samsonova defeated Marketa Vondrousova and Veronika Kudermetova in the first two rounds and continued her streak by accounting for Madison Keys in the quarterfinals, Victoria Azarenka in the semifinals and Belinda Bencic in the final for her maiden tour title.
That dream performance also gave her the confidence to reach the Round of 16 on her Wimbledon debut. But since then things have cooled off a bit for the 22-year-old.
Ranked No. 52 in the world, Samsonova is 1-2 in the main draw from her Montreal-Cincinnati appearances but one of those wins came against Elena Rybakina in the first round at the Canadian Open.
She will look to impress in just her second U.S. Open, having lost in the first round on debut last year.

Boulter Is Short of Match Practice
World No. 190 Katie Boulter has played just one ITF event since the Wimbledon, falling in the second qualifying round to Ankita Raina in Pennsylvania.
Boulter had a successful time on grass reaching the quarterfinals in Nottingham by winning her first three rounds and then making it to the second round at Wimbledon after ousting Danielle Lao in the opening round. She gave Aryna Sabalenka a real scare in that second round contest but eventually lost the close three-setter.
The 25-year-old was 3-5 one the hard courts in the first quarter and will be looking to improve on that record in N.Y., but faces a tough opponent first up.
Samsonova v Boulter Prediction and Tip
Boulter’s struggles on hard courts give Samsonova advantage in this contest. Expect the Russian to win in straight sets.
Tip: Ludmilla to win: 4/9 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
