Jovic’s Historic Quarterfinal
Iva Jovic stormed into her maiden Grand Slam quarterfinal by crushing Yulia Putintseva 6-0, 6-1. She is now the youngest American to reach the Australian Open quarterfinals since Venus Williams in 1998.
The result highlights the offseason work that has taken her game to a new level. Jovic looks increasingly comfortable dictating play on hard courts.
Her rise began last year with a third-round run in Cincinnati. It was followed by a breakthrough WTA 500 title in Guadalajara.
Jovic has carried that momentum into 2026, winning 11 of her first 13 matches. Semifinals in Auckland and Hobart and a first top-10 win over Jasmine Paolini confirm her rapid progress.

Verdict
Sabalenka’s form and Grand Slam experience give her the edge. Jovic is improving fast and can push her, but the top seed should come through, possibly in three sets.
Sabalenka 2-1
