A fascinating quarterfinal showdown is set for Flushing Meadows on Wednesday, as Brazilian star Beatriz Haddad Maia and Karolina Muchova collide for a spot in the semi-finals at the US Open. Both stars will have realistic hopes of going all the way in New York this year, but which player will keep their dreams alive?

Before Betting Beatriz Haddad Maia vs Karolina Muchova

Two of the surprise packages at the US Open this year will collide in the quarterfinals on Wednesday. Beatriz Haddad Maia has always threatened in Grand Slam events, and she has consistently ranked high in the world rankings. She has won three singles titles to date, and has shown her Grand Slam pedigree over the last couple of years after reaching the final four at the French Open.

However, she is enjoying her best run at the US Open this year after previously only making it to the second round in the singles competition. To date, she has a 40% win rate at Flushing Meadows, but she has shown new improvements to her game on a hard court this year in New York. The Brazilian has had a relatively straightforward route to this stage, but she needed three sets to see off Caroline Wozniacki in the previous round at Louis Armstrong Stadium.

Karolina Muchova’s run to this stage is no surprise to us, as she was our pick to win the women’s title at the US Open this year. The Czech player has constantly performed to a high standard at Grand Slam events, reaching the quarterfinals at Wimbledon in 2019, and the Australian Open semi-finals in 2021. But, she is yet to add to her one career title to this point.

However, the US Open often brings out the best in the 28-year-old, and that was evident when she reached the semi-final stage at Flushing Meadows last year. She has taken some notable scalps on her way to the quarterfinals this year, which includes beating Naomi Osaka in the second round in straight sets. Another straight sets win followed in the previous round when eliminating fifth seed Jasmine Paolini.
