Marta Kostyuk will face Yulia Putintseva in the first round of the 2024 Paris Olympics tennis tournament. The match is scheduled for Saturday, July 27, 2024. Here's our Marta Kostyuk vs Yulia Putintseva prediction.

Marta Kostyuk vs Yulia Putintseva Preview

Marta Kostyuk of Ukraine will get a first taste of the Olympic Games this year. And she will be playing in singles and doubles. In her singles campaign, she was drawn to face World No. 30 Yulia Putintseva of Kazakhstan. Kostyuk recently re-entered the Top 20 of the WTA rankings, highlighting the immense progress she's gone through under her coach, Sandra Zaniewska.

The 22-year-old has fallen just short of adding her second career title in 2024, losing in the San Diego and Stuttgart finals. Kostyuk has a 5-4 record on clay this year and was knocked out in the second round of Roland Garros two months ago by Donna Vekic. Can she produce a deep run at the same venue which will host the Olympics tennis tournament for the next one week?

Yulia Putintseva has been in a rich vein form this year. She is back inside the world's Top 30 after a series of eye-catching performances. Putintseva has garnered 31 wins across all competitions this year, nine of those coming on clay, suggesting she has outperformed Kostyuk.

In addition, the fiery Kazakhstani bagged her third WTA title at this year's grass-court swing in Birmingham and defeated a World No. 1 for a second time in Wimbledon (beating Iga Swiatek in three sets).

• Kostyuk and Putintseva have never played each other on the WTA Tour.

Marta Kostyuk vs Yulia Putintseva Prediction

In the absence of Elena Rybakina, Yulia Putintseva will carry Kazakhstan's hopes at the Olympic tennis tournament. It is her second participation. The 29-year-old lost in the first round at the Tokyo Olympics three years ago. But she arrives in Paris in the best possible shape and form after a career-best season.

Putintsva loves clay. It's her favorite surface. Suffice it to say, she's reached the quarterfinals of a Grand Slam on multiple occasions when playing at Roland Garros, and she's just a nightmare to play against on this surface because of her tactical acumen and shot selection.
