Before this year Moyuka Uchijima had never played in the main draw of the Madrid Open. That's all changed in 2025 and the unseeded player takes on the 17th seed Elina Svitolina for a place in the last four. Here's our match prediction.
Uchijima has made a good start to her clay court season. The world number 56 was a quarter-finalist in Rouen (more of which soon) and is now in another last eight in this WTA 1000 tournament.
The Japanese player is up to a new career-high of 47th in the live rankings. Wins have come in Madrid against Robin Montgomery and 26th seed Ons Jabeur, losing the first set in both matches. Tuesday saw her surprisingly beat third seed Jessica Pegula in straight sets.
Elina Svitolina was also in that Rouen tournament and ended up winning it. Her good form has continued in Madrid and the Ukrainian is now 10-0 on clay this year, all her wins in straight sets. The 30-year-old has reached the last eight without dropping a set.
That includes beating 10th-seeded Elena Rybakina and Maria Sakkari. There's been one previous meeting between these two players. That was on clay in last year's Paris Olympics with Svitolina winning and only losing three games.
We tip her to win in straight sets.
