Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction One – Handicap (-3.5) for Ostapenko – 1.85.
Bookmaker Ratings: Prediction Two – Total Games Under 21.5 – 1.77.
Both tennis players were able to break their losing streak in Paris. At the same time, Ostapenko fully demonstrated that she was ready for possible achievements at Roland Garros. Jelena played in an aggressive manner and didn’t make many mistakes. Undoubtedly, Cornet on the backline is not easy to hit, but it’s hard to count on success in the game with Ostapenko only at the cost of it.
The ways of Cornet and Ostapenko crossed four times. All the duels ended in two sets.
Le 18ème commence bien ??

Alize Cornet has had a very unsuccessful approach to Roland Garros. She could not win a single match at the two clay tournaments in Madrid and Paris, losing her opening games to Varvara Gracheva (6-1, 5-7, 5-7) and Simona Halep (4-6, 4-6).
However, at her home Majors, the French tennis player started with a resounding victory over Misaki Doi (6-2, 6-0). On that day, Alize was flawless on her serve, never allowing her opponent to break once. On the backhand it’s not easy to outplay Cornet for any opponent.
She has played 6 games on clay this season and has 3 wins.
Jelena Ostapenko:
Lest anyone has forgotten, Jelena Ostapenko is the last player to have beaten Iga Swiatek.
“I really know what to do and how to play against her,” Ostapenko said after her 1r win earlier today. “So, yeah… I don’t know what else to say (smiling).” pic.twitter.com/xjO81U16Ln

Jelena Ostapenko also had bad last tournaments. In Madrid and Rome, she could not cope with Ekaterina Alexandrova (2-6, 6-4, 4-6) and Lauren Davis (2-6, 3-6). There were not the most optimistic predictions about a confident start in Paris. However, Jelena dispelled all fears.
In the first round, Jelena played against Lucia Bronzetti. The Italian made only four unforced errors in that match. However, this did not save her from a (1-6, 4-6) defeat. She couldn’t play defense as Ostapenko was very aggressive and had 38 active winning balls.
She has played 3 games on clay this season and has only 1 win.
