Maria Sakkari of Greece enters the hostilities at the 2025 Charleston Open searching for a breakthrough run after a bumpy start to her current season. Sakkari will battle Marina Stakusic of Canada on Tuesday.
Sakkari, the former world’s No.3 and two-time Grand Slam semifinalist, has compiled a 6-11 record this season. Her best finish so far this year came at the Upper Linz Ladies, where she reached the quarterfinal round before falling to Dayana Yastremska 7-5 6-0. Sakkari also registered wins at Miami and Indian Wells Open before seeing both campaigns end in the next round at the hands Coco Gauff.
After a quarterfinal stint at Puerto Vallarta Open, Stakusic is aiming for a better showing in her return to the main draw of the WTA Tour in Charleston. The 20-year-old Stakusic has an opportunity to earn her 13th career top-100 victory if she can overcome Sakkari in the first round.

Our Maria Sakkari vs Marina Stakusic Prediction
Despite playing at a level a notch or two below her prime years, Maria Sakkari is still a legit top-100 WTA player. During this year’s Sunshine Double run, there were moments when Sakkari could show a glimpse of her old form, especially in the match against Viktoriya Tomova 6-0 6-3 in the second round of the Indian Wells Open. Before his quarterfinal run at Puerto Vallarta, Stakusic had lost four straight matches, three of which came from top-100 players. Stakusic is 10-14 in 24 games against top-100 players, which is a solid record for a 20-year-old campaigner. However, she needs a big step up against Sakkari, who reached as high as No.3 in the world ranking at the peak of her powers. Our betting prediction for Maria Sakkari vs. Marina Stakusic: Sakkari will win 2-0.
