Maya Joint and Yuliia Starodubtseva are level at 1–1 across 2 recorded meetings.
Yuliia Starodubtseva dropped a first-set tiebreak 10-8 to Maya Joint, then turned the match on the second serve at Nottingham: 57% of second-serve points won to Joint's 44%, a 13-point gap that decided three hours of trading breaks. The swing was clearest off the return — Starodubtseva won 56% of second-serve return points and broke in game 10 of both the second and third sets to close them out. Joint's six aces never translated, and she saved just five of 12 break points. First meeting between the two; Emma Navarro is next.
