It has been DTMs poorest week in 2026. Beijing has seen countless shocks with some players seemingly not really wanting to be playing at this time of year. Until the WTA sort out a reasonable balance for players and stop this ridiculous number of mandatory events then this kind of week will keep on happening. The ambition must be to get players competing when they are at the top of the game. For some of the best players this is increasingly only happening at the grand slams. 


DTM recommends


Iga Świątek to beat E.Mertens

Results in Beijing have been very strange and testament to how players at this time of season perform very differently to the grand slams in the middle of the year.  I have given up trying to work out who will win now especially after Gauff's easy defeat yesterday. ALexandrova is the type of player to step up and take advantage of the opportunity.


DTM recommends


E.Alexandrova to beat M.Andreeva

Coco Gauff has had a difficult week with more than a bit of controversy in her previous round, Regardless of the rights and wrongs of that match, her pathway to another title is very good. Expect her to beat Mertens to set up another quarter final clash. Iva Jovic is due a big win and her match with Iga Swiatek seems a good opportunity. Qinwen Zheng is climbing back up the rankings so will be delighted at her draw against Charaeva.

Naomi Osaka has a good chance to secure her biggest title in a long time this week. She has a chance to gain revenge over Muchova and her Wimbledon defeat. Osaka is the play here at an event where no match has been safe for any higher ranked player. 


DTM recommends


N.Osaka to beat K.Muchova

The big names have fallen early which has left this event much more open than any of the grand slams this year. Alexandrova duly won at good odds yesterday so the loss on Sabalenka has been covered and some. Kartal should be too good for CHaraeva despite her big win over Rybakina and Jovic looks set for a great week as well.

S.Kartal to beat A.Charaeva

I.Jovic to beat K.Rakhimova

Ekaterina Alexandrova has had a mixed year bit it is in the autumn that she often plays well. Her match with Shnaider is very much a 50:50 so at the odds 2.1 is a huge price. Alexandrova is worth an interest. Andreeva is a strong favourite to beat Kudermetova on Sunday.

The second day of last 64 matches takes place on Friday. Iva Jovic will be keen to test herself against top 10 players and achieve o good win after exiting a free times against higher seeds in recent events. She will start with a comfortable win against Harriet Dart. Belinda Bencic has been taking some time out since the US Open but will be fresh for a good run to end the year. Maria Sakkari should also beat Storm Hunter who is good at qualifying but not so likely at getting wins at this level.

I.Jovic to beat H.Dart

B.Bencic to beat A.Zakharova 

M.Sakkari to beat S.Hunter

The seeds enter the event today and a few will be after a good run to make the trip across to Asia worthwhile. Expect Mirra Andreeva to do much better after a poor week in Singapore. She will beat Yuan. Samsonova is another player who could go deep this week. She should beat Fruhvirtova. Elsewhere don't be surprised if Magdalena Frech beats Bartunkova and Preston beats Parry.

Chinese players have a tendency to do will in their own country. Yuan has a game to trouble much stronger hard court players than Oliynykova who rarely wins on this surface. Back the Chinese player to come through.

Y.Yuan to beat O.Oliynykova

Elena Rybakina is the top seed with Aryna Sabalenka finding herself at the bottom of the draw for the first time in a long while. With several late withdrawals the chances of form running to plan as in the US Open looks likely with any of the top 3 seeds doing well in China. Sabalenka has to be the choice for winning in these conditions. 

Elena Rybakina is the top seed with Aryna Sabalenka finding herself at the bottom of the draw for the first time in a long while. With several late withdrawals the chances of form running to plan as in the US Open looks likely with any of the top 3 seeds doing well in China. Sabalenka has to be the choice for winning in these conditions. Coco Gauff is a sensible alternative given her form in Asia last year.
