Krejcikova Looks to Rebound From Toronto Exit
Barbora Krejcikova kickstarted her North American swing with a first-round loss to Liudmila Samsonova in straight sets in Toronto, which was a disappointing result after building strong momentum in recent months.
The Czech recently won the title in Athens, reached the final in 's-Hertogenbosch, the fourth round at Wimbledon and the semifinal in Prague after playing only a handful of tournaments during the first few months of the year due to injury.
This is her fourth appearance in Cincinnati. She cleared the first-round hurdle in two of her previous three main-draw appearances, reaching the quarterfinals in 2021 and the fourth round in 2025.

Bejlek Builds Confidence With Dominant Cincinnati Start
Sara Bejlek opened her campaign with a dominant win against Karolina Pliskova, 6-0, 6-2. She thoroughly controlled the match from start to finish, including breaking her opponent six times.
She has recently produced some encouraging results by reaching the quarterfinals in Athens and Prague and the second round in Toronto. She will now be looking to continue her resurgence this week.
