Rus vs Jeanjean Prediction 1 September 2026
🔊 Arantxa Rus and Léolia Jeanjean meet for a place in the second round of the US Open. Neither player has had a particularly strong season, but the New York courts give both a chance to turn their year around. The winner takes valuable ranking points and prize money, so there is plenty at stake.
Head-to-Head
📊 Arantxa Rus and Léolia Jeanjean have never played each other before, so there is no head-to-head record to draw on when assessing their current chances.
Arantxa Rus Player Overview
Arantxa Rus arrives here having come through qualifying with three wins in a row. Over her last 10 matches she has won six and lost four. Her hold percentage is low at 29%, though across that same stretch she has won 56% of sets and 52% of games, putting her ahead of her opponent in both. Her matches average 23 games. The +2.5 games handicap has landed in eight of her last nine matches, which points to her ability to stay within that margin even against higher-ranked opponents.

Leolia Jeanjean Player Overview
Leolia Jeanjean arrives at the US Open on the back of an inconsistent run: five wins and five losses in her last ten matches, four of those defeats coming in straight sets.
