First-round exits followed by the Hungarian player at the Australian Open and at the Ostrava Open, losing to the likes of Clara Tauson and Tereza Martincova. She played at an ITF event in Oeiras, where she reached the quarterfinals, losing to Darja Vidmanova.
Andreescu vs. Gálfi Prediction
Andreescu has a 65% win rate on hard courts throughout her career. The Canadian has reached 5 finals on the surface, winning three titles. She has won some of the biggest hard-court titles on Tour, including the US Open in 2019, along with two WTA 1000 titles in Indian Wells and Canada that year. She also reached the Miami Open final back in 2021, losing to Asleigh Barty.
Gálfi, on the other hand, has yet to win a Tour-level title, winning four Challenger titles, all of which have come on the clay. The Hungarian has had success on hard courts on the ITF Tour, winning seven titles from eight finals.
Andreescu has been in fine form, losing only one match this year, which will have given her a lot of confidence. Gálfi, on the other hand, has not gone past the first round at the tour level, making the Canadian player the favorite to win the upcoming match.
Pick: Andreescu to win in straight sets
