Leylah Fernandez and Amanda Anisimova will face off in the fourth round of the 2022 French Open on Sunday.
The Canadian, who is seeded 17th in the competition, booked her place in the last 16 on Friday by edging 14th seed Belinda Bencic in a thrilling three-set match that lasted almost three hours.
2019 semifinalist Anisimova, meanwhile, won her third-round match when Karolina Muchova retired due to an ankle injury, trailing 6-7(7), 6-2, 3-0.
The Canadian has had a decent season so far, having successfully defended her title at the Monterrey Open in February. Before toppling Bencic at the French Open this week, Fernandez beat Kristina Mladenovic and Katerina Siniakova in straight sets in her first couple of rounds.
Anisimova, too, has produced some very good tennis this season. The 20-year-old won her second WTA title at the Melbourne Summer Set 2 and also reached the semifinals at the Charleston Open.
Anisimova did fairly well during the European clay swing as she reached the quarterfinals in Madrid and Rome. Like Fernandez, she also won her first two matches in the French Open in straight sets against Naomi Osaka and Donna Vekic.
Anisimova and Fernandez will meet for the second time after having previously locked horns at Indian Wells earlier this year. The former took the opening set and had a few match points in the second. However, Fernandez won the set in a tie-break before Anisimova retired from the match due to illness.
The American has been in good form lately and will probably enter the match as the favorite. However, the US Open runner-up should not be written off as she has the talent to pull off a win and reach her second Grand Slam quarterfinal.
The winner of the match will face either Martina Trevisan or Aliaksandra Sasnovich in the quarterfinals of the French Open.
