Ashlyn Krueger Returns to Hard Courts Seeking Answers
Ashlyn Krueger struggled for consistency early this year. Apart from reaching the semifinals in Austin and the third round at Indian Wells, she failed to win multiple matches in 11 of her first 13 events, which pushed her outside the Top 100 in the rankings.
However, the 22-year-old turned her season around during the grass-court swing by reaching the semifinals at the WTA 125 event in Birmingham, winning the WTA 125 title in Ilkley, and making the fourth round at Wimbledon. These results helped her climb back into the Top 70.
The American has struggled to build on those results in recent weeks, however, winning only two matches across her last three events.

Anisimova Brings Cincinnati Momentum Back to New York
Amanda Anisimova is coming off a successful campaign in Cincinnati, where she reached the quarterfinals after defeating Alexandra Eala and Linda Noskova before losing to Jessica Pegula in three sets.
The American made a strong start to the season, reaching the semifinals in Dubai, the quarterfinals at the Australian Open, and the fourth round at both Indian Wells and Miami. However, a wrist injury halted her progress, limited her schedule, and cost her significant ranking points, pushing her closer to falling outside the Top 10.
She will now look to build on her recent momentum from Cincinnati as she attempts to defend the runner-up points from last year's US Open. She has made six main-draw appearances here and cleared the opening-round hurdle three times.
