Match summary
Emma Navarro meets Janice Tjen on May 26 at the French Open on outdoor clay. The two are separated by just two ranking spots, with Navarro at 39 and Tjen at 41. This is their first career matchup.
Navarro has won five straight matches and posted a 6-4 record over her last ten outings. Tjen has struggled in the same window, winning just three of ten. The gap widens on clay, where Navarro holds a 12-8 record (60%) while Tjen sits at 2-4 (33%). Against shared opponents over this stretch, Navarro defeated Iga Swiatek, Iva Jovic, and Yulia Putintseva; Tjen beat Dayana Yastremska and Francesca Jones but fell to the same three names Navarro handled.
Navarro builds points by reading pace and redirecting off the baseline rather than overpowering opponents. Tjen relies on flat, aggressive hitting to dictate rallies. On clay, where the ball sits higher and rallies extend, Navarro's reactive game has translated well. Tjen's power game requires her to shorten points, and her recent clay record suggests she has not found that rhythm. The match will test whether Tjen can force the issue early enough in points or whether Navarro's timing and recovery allow her to weather the assault.
