An ATP/WTA 250 event held annually in the Netherlands, the Libema Open is one of the first grass court events of the season, although it was played on clay until 2018. It is being played in conjunction with the BOSS Open in Stuttgart, Germany, meaning there’s relatively diminished fields for both the men’s and women’s draws. 

The men’s draw, however, features top-10 players Daniil Medvedev and Jannik Sinner, as well as other talented players, including Borna Coric and Alex de Minaur. Veronika Kudermetova, the world No. 11, is the top seed in the women’s draw. 

Tim van Rijthoven and Ekaterina Alexandrova are the defending men’s and women’s champions. 

The Libema Open, held simultaneously with the BOSS Open in Stuttgart, Germany. Let’s have a look at both WTA and ATP contestants so you can get ready to bet against their ATP lines or WTA Lines.

Early Libema Open Updates

The top four seeds have yet to play in either draw as they earned automatic entries into the Round of 16. In early action in the men’s draw, Milos Raonic, the 2016 Wimbledon finalist who hasn’t played since 2021, defeated Miomir Kecmanovic 6-3, 6-4 and looked impressive in doing so. Swiss player Marc-Andrea Husler upset American Maxime Cressy 6-2, 7-6 (7-2). 

While there weren’t many surprises in the first round of the women’s draw, Canadian qualifier Carol Zhao defeated Ysaline Bonaventure and will play top seed Kudermetova in the second round. 

Must-Bet Libema Open Matches

Rinky Hijikata (+110) vs. Marc-Andrea Huesler (-138)

Rinky Hijikata, the lucky loser entrant into the Libema Open, won his first-round match against wildcard Gijs Brouwer after dropping the opening set and will play MA Huesler, who scored an upset victory in his opening-round match. Hijikata, a 22-year-old Australian ranked outside of the top-100, has never played Huesler.

Huesler is 8-14 this season on the ATP Tour, while Hijikata is just 2-3, having played most of his matches on the Challenger Tour. Huesler is a slight betting favorite and offers great value at -138 as he should benefit from his win over Cressey. He’s also 6-foot-5 and covers a lot more of the court than the 5-foot-10 Hijikata.

Polina Kudermetova (+400) vs. Liudmila Samsonova (-600)

Polina Kudermetova, the sister of top-seed Veronika, is a talented 20-year-old Russian who has climbed within the top 150 players in the world this season. She defeated Yuan Yue 6-4, 6-3 in the opening round, while her higher-ranked second-round opponent Liudmila Samsonova had to battle for a 7-5, 6-7 (5-7), 7-6 (7-3) victory over qualifier Lena Papadakis. 

Coincidentally, Samsonova is playing doubles with Polina’s sister this week. Samsonova and Polina have never played each other on the WTA Tour. Samsonova is 17-7 in her career on grass, while Polina hadn’t played a match on grass on the WTA Tour until her first-round victory. An all-Kudermetova final would be interesting, but Samsonova is the smart bet here.

Veronika Kudermetova (-1000) vs. Carol Zhao (+600)

In another match of two players who haven’t played each other, Veronika Kudermetova, the top seed, takes on qualifier Carol Zhao in second-round action. Zhao is just 5-6 in her career on grass compared to Kudermetova, who is 19-13.

Including qualifiers, Zhao has been on court for more than 4 hours and 30 minutes at the Libema Open, while Kudermetova is rested, needing just 52 minutes to win her first-round match. Kudermetova is a two-time semifinalist at the Libema Open and should have little trouble advancing past Zhao, so don’t bet on an upset here. Take straight sets or parlay it with a Samsonova victory for added value.
