Donna Vekic

Reached career-high No. 17 in January 2025. WTA lists hard as her favorite surface, and its bio frames her 2021 knee surgery plus 2022 knee/foot setbacks as earlier career context rather than a current London issue.

Carole Monnet

France

Career-high No. 158 came in November 2025. Reliable public sources show a clay-heavy recent schedule, and the exact search set did not surface a clearly stated favorite surface or height.

Quick Take

Pre-match view

Context last updated 6 Jun 2026, 21:26 · Europe/Bucharest

Donna Vekic's vast grass-court experience and strong recent form make her a heavy favorite against Carole Monnet, who has no 2026 grass matches and a tight clay-to-grass turnaround.

Vekic should win in straight sets, with the total games likely staying under 20.5, but the odds on Vekic are too short for value. Avoid betting on Monnet or the set 2 total over, as the surface mismatch and Vekic's dominance point to a routine victory.

- Her 2026 surface record shows 0 wins and 0 losses on grass.
- She has only 6 career grass wins compared to 148 on clay, highlighting her surface preference.
Vekic is 4-1 in her last five matches, including a straight-set win over Monnet in April.
- In that H2H, Vekic won 71% of first-serve points and broke serve 5 times.
- Vekic's recent wins have come against opponents ranked between 100 and 264, showing consistent form at this level.
Vekic has 57 career grass wins; Monnet has 6.
- Vekic reached the Wimbledon semifinals in 2024, proving her grass-court pedigree.
