The Latvian&rsquo;s first big test will be against her national compatriot Anastasija Sevastova. Despite the former Roland Garros winner starting as the firm favourite, her head to head record against the former World No. 11 is intriguing to say the least.<\/p><p>While Stuttgart presented a singles renaissance for <a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/2025-stuttgart-open-victory-and-new-porsche-keys-jelena-ostapenko-takes-down-world-number-1-aryna-sabalenka\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>Jelena Ostapenko<\/a>, the 27-year-old has been excelling on the doubles circuit. The World No. 18 won doubles trophies in Abu Dhabi as well as Charleston, and also reached the summit clash in Dubai and Australia alongside Hsieh. In singles, &lsquo;Penko&rsquo; reached the final in Qatar, where she lost to Amanda Anisimova. Yet, she beat Iga Swiatek and Aryna Sabalenka en route to the Stuttgart crown.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"How Jelena Ostapenko won Stuttgart &#127942;\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Vjpx6oUjOjM?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure><p>Anastasija Sevastova is making a return after a brutal ACL injury.

While the fiesty 27-year-old likes to go for her shots and keep the intensity high, Sevastova has a more calm approach that involves rallies and exchanges. In the first ever match between the duo, Ostapenko was forced to retire midway. When they met in the return fixture in Stuttgart 2019, Sevastova won in three sets.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Event<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Round<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Winner<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Score<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2019 Stuttgart<\/td><td>Round of 32<\/td><td>Anastasija Sevastova<\/td><td>6-2 4-6 6-0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>2015 Moscow<\/td><td>Qualifying R2<\/td><td>Anastasija Sevastova<\/td><td>6-3 3-1 RET.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jelena Ostapenko vs Anastasija Sevastova Titles Comparison<\/h2><figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><tbody><tr><td><strong>Jelena Ostapenko<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Category<\/strong><\/td><td><strong>Anastasija Sevastova<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td>1<\/td><td>Grand Slams<\/td><td>0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>9<\/td><td>WTA Singles Titles<\/td><td>4<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>11<\/td><td>WTA Doubles Titles<\/td><td>0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>0<\/td><td>WTA-1000 Titles<\/td><td>0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>R1 (Tokyo 2020)<\/td><td>Olympics Best Performance<\/td><td>&ndash;<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>No. 18<\/td><td>Current World Ranking<\/td><td>N\/A<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Jelena Ostapenko vs Anastasija Sevastova Madrid Open 2025 Prediction<\/h2><figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Anastasija Sevastova (and her drop shot) are back in Madrid at age 35 after maternity leave and a major knee injury.

I specialise in tennis and football writing at The Playoffs News, and I have prior experience working at EssentiallySports and Sportskeeda. Born and raised in Bengaluru, India, sport was my safe space right from my childhood. After trying my hand at multiple sports and representing my educational institutions in cricket, badminton and table tennis, I found sports media to be my calling. My message to the readers is not to be shy to express themselves - regardless of whether it is playing, talking or writing about sport.
