Y. Starodubtseva

Player Overview

Yulia Starodubtseva, holding a career win percentage of 57.5% across 247 matches, has seen her performance stabilize recently with a 49% win rate over the last two years. Her Elo rating of 2162 reflects a solid standing in the sport, though her current trajectory appears stable rather than improving. While her hard and clay performances remain respectable, she has struggled on grass, with a lower rating of 1548.

Entering this match, Starodubtseva's recent results reflect a mixed bag: a notable win against Elena Rybakina at the French Open stands out among losses to Aoran Wang and Anna Blinkova. With a recent win rate of 60% over the last ten matches, she has shown potential, but the lack of consistency could be a concern as she faces a determined opponent in this Nottingham fixture.
