Linette Starting on Shaky Grounds
Magda Linette, World No. 23, is starting in Wimbledon on the back of a slow grass swing.
She is 2-2 on the surface, losing in round two in Nottingham and Birmingham. In the former, she fell to Jodie Burrage (then #131), while in the latter, it was China’s Lin Zhu who knocked her out in straight sets.
All in all, the Pole has picked up 18 wins losing 16 in 2023.
Her highlight is undoubtedly her semifinal showing in Melbourne – beating Anett Kontaveit, Ekaterina Alexandrova, Caroline Garcia, and Karolina Pliskova en route. Before that, Linette had made it to the final rounds of the United Cup.
Since then, there have been only a couple of instances where Magda won successive matches in a tournament. Her last such instance was the Miami Open, where she reached round four.

Teichmann Seeking Revival
Around the same time last season, Jil Teichmann was World No. 21, but now, she is ranked #129. The Swiss has fallen on tough times as she hunts for much-needed wins and reprieve.
She featured in the grass warm-up trifecta of Nottingham, Birmingham, and Bad Homburg recently. The best she did was reaching round two (as a qualifier) in the German event – losing to Iga Swiatek. Before that loss to World No. 1, her defeats came against lower-ranked players like Magdalena Frech and Viktorija Golubic.
Through the season, Teichmann has had to make do with such early losses. It was only in Indian Wells, Reus Challenger, and La Bisbal 125 that she made it as far as round three.
As for her form on grass, Jil has always struggled, with her current record of 3-3 being her best season performance. In Wimbledon, too, she has never won her opening match.
Linette v Teichmann Prediction and Tip
While Linette will start as the favourite on paper, anything can happen in reality. This one is Linette’s to lose, no doubt, but given rocky spells from her and Teichmann players, anything can happen.
Tips:
- Low-Risk Tip: Linette to win: 3/7
- Moderate Risk Tip: Over 20.5 games: 5/6
