H2H History

Maia won both meetings against Rybakina. Both matches came this year in Abu Dhabi (3 sets) and Stuttgart (1 set after Rybakina retired). 

Randy’s Pick

You can make a case for Maia and the plus money, considering she’s beaten Rybakina twice this year. However, Rybakina is the more trustworthy player on the big stage, especially Wimbledon where she not only won the tournament last year, but has now made at least the fourth round 3 years in a row. Rybakina is very comfortable at this event, and Maia hasn’t proven she can get the job done in these big events.

Give me Rybakina in straight sets for max betting value.
