There is no doubt that Amanda Anisimova is one of the most promising teenagers on the WTA Tour. Endowed with a powerful game, the 17-year-old American can blast anyone off the court on her day which was evident from the way she sent Aryna Sabalenka out of the Australian Open in January and then repeated the feat at the ongoing French Open 2019 as well.
If she reached the fourth round in Melbourne, she went one better in Paris by becoming the first ever player born in the 2000s to reach the last eight of a Slam. In the four matches that she has played at the claycourt Major, she hasn't dropped a set. Anisimova is fearless and believes in herself, two qualities which would take her a long way in her tennis career.
She would need to ride on all those qualities to tackle her next opponent, the defending champion Simona Halep. Granted that the former World No. 1 has been struggling for consistency this year, but there's no denying that she is simply getting better and better with every match.
Halep, who began her title defence with a couple of three-set thrillers, improved thoroughly and played her cleanest match so far in her fourth-round encounter against Polish rising star Iga Swiatek.
The third seed conceded only one game in an absolute masterclass of a performance and would be looking to use all her experience and composure against another such upcoming talent to make a return to the semi-finals.
