Emma Navarro vs Marta Kostyuk preview
World No. 10 Emma Navarro will face Ukraine's Marta Kostyuk in the first round of the 2025 Berlin Tennis Open on Monday, June 16.
Trending
Navarro has struggled with consistency this year, as evidenced by her 18-14 win/loss record on the WTA Tour thus far. The highlights of the American's season include winning her second career title at the Merida Open and reaching the quarterfinals of the Australian Open. For what it's worth, the 24-year-old American has considerably slowed down, having lost seven of her last 12 matches since the Charleston Open in early April.
Kostyuk, meanwhile, has put together a respectable campaign in 2025 for her singles ranking of 26, coming on top of 17 of her 29 tour-level outings thus far. Following a good showing during this year's WTA 1000 tournaments, where she reached the quarterfinals in Madrid and the Round of 16 in Rome. The 22-year-old Ukrainian suffered a first-round upset at the 2025 French Open. She then took a short break from the women's pro circuit and will get her grasscourt season underway in Berlin this week.
Emma Navarro vs Marta Kostyuk head-to-head
Navarro leads Kostyuk by a margin of 2-0 in their head-to-head meetings on the WTA Tour. While the American defeated the Ukrainian at the 2024 US Open and the 2024 Canadian Open, they have never faced off on a surface outside hard courts.

Emma Navarro vs Marta Kostyuk prediction
Navarro has solid groundstrokes from both wings and also benefits from world-class endurance. That said, the 24-year-old doesn't take nearly enough risks from the baseline, which often leads to her getting overpowered by her lower-ranked peers.
Kostyuk has a much more powerful game, with her down-the-line backhand being the biggest weapon in her arsenal. The former World No. 16 also has no qualms with blasting winners from her forehand wing albeit with frustrating inconsistency. She will like the lower-bouncing conditions on the grasscourts of the 2025 Berlin Open more than her higher-ranked opponent, making her the slight favorite in their first-round encounter on Monday.
Pick: Kostyuk to win in straight sets.
