Naomi Osaka is set to play her first grass court match of the season in Den Bosch against Elise Mertens on Day 2 of the WTA 250 tournament. This match is highly anticipated as fans are eager to see how Osaka will perform on this surface. The second day of the tournament will also feature other exciting matches that were postponed from Day 1 due to rain, including Ekaterina Alexandrova vs Arina Rodionova and Bianca Andreescu vs Eva Vedder. In addition, Jessica Pegula will face Aliaksandra Sasnovich and Liudmila Samsonova will take on Alison Van Uytvanck.

One of the matches to look out for is Diana Shnaider vs Yue Yuan. Shnaider, who lacks experience on grass, has the potential to excel on this surface with her powerful serve and flat shots. On the other hand, Yuan, known for her performance on hard courts, has not been impressive on grass. It will be interesting to see how this match unfolds, but Shnaider is predicted to have a slight edge in Den Bosch.

Another exciting match to watch is Magda Linette vs Robin Montgomery. Linette, who has had a mixed season so far, has shown success on clay courts despite her preference for hard courts. She is a skilled player on grass and is expected to outperform Montgomery, who has limited experience on this surface.

The highlight of the day will be the match between Naomi Osaka and Elise Mertens. Osaka, who surprised many with her performance on clay courts, will face a tough challenge from Mertens, who has a solid game on all surfaces. Mertens has previously defeated Osaka and is capable of exploiting any weaknesses in Osaka’s game on grass.

Overall, Day 2 of the WTA 250 in Den Bosch promises to be filled with thrilling matches and exciting moments. Tennis fans are eagerly awaiting to see how their favorite players will perform on the grass courts. Stay tuned for more updates and predictions as the tournament progresses.
