The Brit advanced after a straight-sets win over Yulia Putintseva. This year marks a historic revival of the Queen&rsquo;s Club tournament on the WTA calendar, returning after a 52-year hiatus. With Wimbledon fast approaching, the event offers a key tune-up on grass.<\/p><p>Rybakina, the 2022 Wimbledon champion, comes in as one of the top contenders. Watson, too, has her share of grass-court success. She won the 2016 Wimbledon mixed doubles title alongside Henri Kontinen and reached the final again in 2017. However, facing a heavy-hitter like Rybakina, the Brit will need to dig deep on home soil.<\/p><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\">Back on the winner's podium &#127942;&#128032;<br><br>Elena Rybakina picks up her 1st title of 2025 in Strasbourg!<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/hashtag\/IS25?src=hash&amp;ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>#IS25<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/BYrKontmWd\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>pic.twitter.com\/BYrKontmWd<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Tennis Channel (@TennisChannel) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/TennisChannel\/status\/1926292613172224387?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'>May 24, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure><p><strong>Read More: <\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/theplayoffs.news\/en\/jannik-sinner-doping-case-explained-why-was-jannik-sinner-banned\/\" class=\"trk-cta-link\" data-cta-trk='{\"ctaType\":\"Link\",\"ctaSubType\":\"main\"}'><strong>Jannik Sinner Doping Case Explained &ndash; Why was Jannik Sinner suspended?<\/strong><\/a><\/p><h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Elena Rybakina vs. Heather Watson Preview<\/h2><p>Rybakina has had a patchy but productive season marked by several deep runs.
