 Anastasia Potipova vs. Marta Kostruk is the first quarterfinal for the ladies Indian Wells for 2024. And both have been very good to get to this stage. Kostruk entered the tournament as the 31st seed and will get a buy in the first round. In the second round she take on Hontama, there's no problem getting through in straights. 6-4-6-2. In the third round she was supposed to take on the number 7 seed Vondrusava. But Vondrusava had to pull out due to personal reasons, handing Kostruk the walkover. In the fourth round she take on the 22 seed Pavlia Cenkava, who had just beaten a Dajmire in the previous rounds. There's no problem getting through in straights. 6-4-6-1 to advance to the quarterfinal. Potipova entered the tournament as the number 28 seed and will get a buy in the first round. In the second round she take on Buzkova. And after a close first set will get through in straights. 7-5-6-1. Third round she take on the lucky loser Potiroska, who was able to advance thanks to Rabakina withdrawing last minute. There's no problem for Potipova getting through in straights. 6-1-6-1. In the fourth round she take on the 13th seed Palini, who had just won Dubai a couple of weeks ago. And after dropping the second set, Potipova would recover. Winning in 3-7-5-1-6-6-3 to advance to the quarterfinal. These two were played twice before with Potipova having won both of their matches. Both of them were last year. Only one of them has been on a hard court though. That was in Miami. And Potipova got the easy win there. The last time they did play it was very very close, with Kostrak almost getting the win on the grass. Kostrak's going to win this one. She needs to keep her emotions within her, because she does get a little emotional when she plays Potipova. If you've watched their matches previously, they do have a little bit of beef going on. So she needs to keep her emotions clear and keep her emotions inside and just use her game to do the talking. Potipova is going to win this one. It's the same thing. She's got to keep her emotions in check, because they do have a little bit of beef over the last couple of matches. And she also has to use the confidence of the two lovely. She has won both their matches and try and play that game that beat Kostrak back in Miami 12 months ago. Very interesting matchup. Of course, Rebecca was here, was expecting her to get to this stage, even Kallon Sky or maybe even Palini. But this is the matchup. One of these players that makes the semis. But I've got to go with Kostrak in this one. I think Kostrak this year has been so good, of course, had a great Australian Open. And I reckon she's just getting a little bit better when it matters. Also, the fitness levels as well. She has had one less match because von Drusso pulled out. So I'm going to go with Kostrak to make the semis. But let me know down in the comments below who's going to win this one.
