World No. 45 Caroline Dolehide will play Australian Open semifinalist Dayana Yastremska in the first round of the 2024 San Diego Open. The match will be played on Tuesday, February 27, 2024. Here's our Caroline Dolehide vs Dayana Yastremska prediction.
Caroline Dolehide
Caroline Dolehide enters the 2024 San Diego Open on the back of a four-match losing streak in singles. But she has had tremendous success in doubles, reaching the finals of the WTA 1000 Qatar Open while partnering compatriot Desirae Krawczyk. So, it hasn't all been doom and gloom for the American. Additionally, her breakthrough run at the Guadalajara Open last year catapulted her ranking into the Top 50, meaning she is a direct entrant into a host of WTA tour tournaments.
Dayana Yastremska
Dayana Yastremska has played two tournaments since her sensational run to the Australian Open semifinals last month. The Ukrainian is now a Top 40 player thanks to her historic run in Melbourne but has lost two matches in a row, most recently at the Dubai Championships to Veronika Kudermetova by the bizarre score of 0-6, 6-1, 0-6. The 23-year-old remains very unpredictable and has a tendency to blow hot and cold intermittently during a match, but her talent remains absolute.
Caroline Dolehide vs Dayana Yastremska Head-To-Head
Caroline Dolehide leads Dayana Yastremska 1-0 in their head-to-head. They faced off at the 2022 Miami Open qualifying, with the American earning a retirement win while leading 6-3, 3-0.
Caroline Dolehide vs Dayana Yastremska Prediction
By dint of ranking and form, Yastremska should be winning this match. She is also the player with the higher ceiling. But at the same time, you should tread any market here with caution as both these two players are prone to a lot of uncharacteristic mistakes. Dolehide is the better server and Yastremska a better returner. So it will be a fascinating battle of who will land the telling blow. Right now, though, Yastremska appears to be the likelier to win this contest.
