This is the first time when Karolina Muchova will take on Tatjana Maria.
The Fourth-seeded and current world No. 13, Karolina Muchova will be in action for the round of 16 clash against Tatjana Maria in the 2025 Queen’s Club Championship. Muchova beat Maddison Inglish in three-set thriller (7–6, 3–6, 6–4) in first round clash, while Maria overcame Leylah Fernandez in her main-draw clash to set a date with the Czech Republican ace. Both players are playing in the WTA HSBC Championships for the first time.
Karolina Muchova, who was the runner-up in the 2023 French Open, made a first-round exit in this year’s Roland Garros event. Injuries have hurt her progress over the last two years. She missed nine months of action during the run. The Cech Republican ace would be proud of her comeback victory in the previous game. It was her first win since March and she also also ended her 3-match losing streak. She has a 20–13 W/L record on grass and 13-8 record in ongoing season. Most recently, she had a semifinal run in the Dubai Open where she lost to Clara Tauson.

Maria has posted a 4-4 record against the top-20 players which might boost her confidence against Muchova. Meanwhile, she has won just one match out of nine in main-draw since April.

Karolina Muchova and Tatjana Maria both are grass-court players. Muchova’s combination of two-handed backhand, and prior grass quarter-final makes her favorite. She has to counter the 37-year-old, who brings experience and depth in the long battles. Maria’s savvy court-play and ongoing winning momentum can trouble Muchova. The sixth-seeded needs to work on her groundstrokes and keeps footwork sharp. It should be a tough victory for Muchova.
