Kerber has won three of the five meetings against Barty, including the most recent match in 2019 Hopman Cup. Four of the five meetings were decided in straight sets. This will be the first meeting on grass.

You can make a strong case for either of these players and the shotmaking should be off the charts on both sides. Barty is probably going to be favored because of her ranking, but Kerber has played the better Tennis lately, which includes a title at Homburg. Kerber has won 10 straight matches on grass and she’s moving around better than she has in years. We also can’t ignore this is Kerber’s best grand slam where she’s made the final twice.

Must watch match, but I lean Kerber.
