Maya Joint and Ajla Tomljanovic meet in the semifinal of the WTA Rabat on Friday, May 23. Here’s our Maya Joint vs Ajla Tomljanovic prediction. This preview will also include a Maya Joint vs Ajla Tomljanovic pick.

Maya Joint Preview

Maya Joint secured her spot in the semifinal of the WTA Rabat with a 6-1, 6-1 win over Ann Li of the United States. Joint spent only 65 minutes in the victory, in which she landed 66% of first serves and won 72% of first serve points (21/29). The Australian teenager won 47% of second serve points (7/15) and saved five of six breakpoints. 

Joint has not dropped a set this week. She dismissed Croatia’s Ana Konjuh 7-5, 6-2 in the first round and Katie Volynets 6-0, 6-3 in the second round. Joint improves to 8-3 on clay this season. This will be her first Tour-level semifinal on this surface. She is now 28-13 in 2025 and is guaranteed a top 70 debut at the very least after this tournament.

Ajla Tomljanovic Preview

Ajla Tomljanovic is also coming off a comprehensive win. She beat Spain’s Jessica Bouzas Maneiro 6-1, 6-3 in the quarterfinals of the WTA Rabat. Tomljanovic took only 66 minutes, in which she landed 63% of first serves and won 55% of first serve points (18/33). Tomljanovic won 47% of second serve points (9/19) and saved one of four breakpoints in the match.

The World No. 79 dropped a set in each of her last two matches in this tournament. She beat Viktoriya Tomova 7-5, 4-6, 6-3 in the first round. She needed to battle back from a set down to defeat Tatiana Pieri 4-6, 6-2, 6-4 in the second round. Tomljanovic is through to her second WTA semifinal of the season and first on clay. The 32-year-old is 7-4 on the surface this term.

Joint and Tomljanovic have not met at any level before this.

Maya Joint vs Ajla Tomljanovic Prediction

Joint (78th) and Tomljanovic (79th) sit just one spot from each other in the WTA rankings and will rise higher after the tournament. Obviously, Tomljanovic is the experienced player in this matchup, but she’s up against one of the tour’s most promising young players. Joint is a fearless shotmaker and she’s already given some big guns a hard time this season. I expect Joint to assert her authority in this match if she continues to play with the same mentality that has already taken her to the top 80, she’ll be a handful. Give me Joint for a statement win in this all-Aussie clash.
