Lucija Ciric-Bagaric Player Overview
Čirić Bagarić is ranked significantly lower and has been inconsistent - five wins in her last ten matches, with three straight-sets losses in that stretch. She came through two qualifying rounds, but her game win rate (50%) and set win rate (55%) both trail her opponent's. On serve, the numbers are poor: she's won just a quarter of her service games in recent matches, which points to regular trouble holding even against lower-ranked opponents.
