We'll have at least two unseeded players in the semi-finals of the Open de Rouen. One will come from this match as Elena-Gabriela Ruse takes on lucky loser Jessika Ponchet for a place in the semi-finals. Here's our match prediction.
Elena-Gabriela Ruse is the world number 90 and is having a busy tournament. The 27-year-old is also in the last eight of the doubles event in this indoor clay court tournament. More success has been achieved of late in doubles with a semi-final at Roland Garros last year.
2025 has seen the Romanian win 12 of her 17 matches but this is her first quarter-final. To reach the last eight, Ruse has had wins over Elsa Jacquemont (after losing the first set 6-1) and qualifier Camila Rosetello in straight sets.
Jessika Ponchet wouldn't have expected to be in with a chance of reaching the semi-finals. That's because the 28-year-old lost in the second qualifying round. Put back in the draw as a lucky loser, the French player has beaten two qualifiers Margaux Rouvroy and Fiona Ferro, both in straight sets.
Ponchet was ranked 146th in the latest list and is up to 134th in the live rankings. This could be a tight match and we tip over 19.5 games to be played.
