Analysis for Cirstea-Koryttseva (WTA Miami)

Head-to-head record 2:0

Mariya Koryttseva of Ukraine will face Sorana Cirstea in the first round of Miami tournament. Sorana is a Romanian youngster with great future ahead of her but lets have a look at her YTD statistics. She is 0-5 in 2009 suffering bad losses to Safina (1:6,2:6 - Sydney), Czink (2:6,2:6 -Australian Open), Dechy (2:6,6:1,2:6 – Paris), Cibulkova (4:6,2:6 – Dubai) and Vesnina (7:5,2:6,3:6 – Indian Wells). Her movement and power are very good but she is still looking for some kind of form this year. Koryttseva has cracked into the top 50 in the last year. She has won four doubles titles on the WTA Tour. On the ITF Tour, where she has played a vast majority of her career, she has won six singles titles and massive seventeen doubles titles. She is a pretty talented player with comparatively solid serve and good movement which make her dangerous on all surfaces.

She lost to Sania Mirza in Indian Wells (6:2,3:6,2:6) and we think that odds above 2.00 could be worth taking here.
