Maria Sakkari enters this US Open second-round matchup on hard courts as the clear favorite against Yuliia Starodubtseva, reflecting traders' consensus on the Greek player's greater experience and physical resilience. Sakkari, ranked No. 32-35, rallied from a set and break down while facing 14 break points to defeat Robin Montgomery in the opener, extending her solid 2026 hard-court form that includes an Athens final appearance. Starodubtseva, ranked around No. 58 and in her first US Open second round, cruised past Ella Seidel in straight sets but lacks comparable major depth or head-to-head history against higher-ranked opponents. Sakkari's superior baseline power and three-set stamina on the surface underpin the implied probability edge, though the Ukrainian's recent ranking climb and efficient serving could keep sets competitive.
