Eighth seed Amanda Anisimova will face Yulia Putintseva in the third round of the Charleston Open 2025.

Following a first-round bye, Anisimova took on former top-10 player Veronika Kudermetova in the second round. The American took control of the reins right away, breaking her opponent's serve twice in each set for an easy 6-2, 6-2 win.

Putinseva received a bye into the second round as well, where she was up against Zhang Shaui. The match started with four consecutive breaks of serve. The Kazakh broke the trend with a hold of serve, following which there were four more service breaks.

The set eventually went to a tie-break, in which Putintseva came out on top to clinch the set. After the back-and-forth in the first set, the second set proved to be a walk in the park for the Kazakh. She conceded only one game in it to score a 7-6 (5), 6-1 win.

Anisimova won the biggest title of her career in February at the Qatar Open, a WTA 1000 tournament. She struggled to perform at a similar level in her next two events but had a respectable fourth-round finish at the Miami Open, her previous tournament. She was in fine form against Kudermetova here, saving all four breakpoints with ease.

Putintseva's win over Zhang was the need of the hour, snapping her four-match losing streak. It wasn't an easy win, as she struggled to hold serve in the first set. However, she played some of her best tennis in recent times in the second set to get over the finish line.

One of Anisimova's two wins over Putintseva came at the Charleston Open in 2022. She dropped only three games in their very first meeting. Given how both have played in recent months, another dominant win for the American doesn't seem out of the question.

Pick: Amanda Anisimova to win in straight sets.
