Short Preview

In an eagerly anticipated clash at the 2026 WTA US Open, Marta Kostyuk will face Sloane Stephens in what promises to be a compelling encounter. Scheduled for September 2, this match will take place on Kostyuk’s home turf, adding an extra layer of motivation for the young Ukrainian.

Recent form suggests Kostyuk comes into this match with a notable edge, having secured victories in four of her last five outings. Her aggressive baseline play and ability to dictate points with powerful groundstrokes have greatly contributed to her recent successes. Conversely, Sloane Stephens has been slightly less consistent, winning three of her last five matches. While she possesses a strategic game and exceptional court coverage, her ability to handle high-pressure situations will be put to the test against Kostyuk’s intensity.

Bookmakers favor Kostyuk with odds of 1.11, reflecting her strong current form and home advantage, while Stephens sits at 5.84. With both players showing flashes of brilliance, the match could hinge on Kostyuk’s ability to assert her playing style and maintain composure against a seasoned opponent. As such, while Kostyuk may be favored, the outcome remains uncertain, and a thrilling contest is expected.
