Maria Timofeeva defeated Tamara Zidansek 6-3, 7-5 — US Open 2026 R128.
Tamara Zidansek and Maria Timofeeva: Maria Timofeeva leads 1–0 across 1 recorded meeting.
Serve was close to optional in this one: the two combined for 10 breaks, and Timofeeva came through the churn because she finished points, 25 winners to 11 off an identical 33 unforced errors apiece. The 92nd-ranked winner broke in game 2 for 2-0 and again in game 4 for 4-0, then took four of seven break chances in a second set that carried seven breaks on its own. Zidansek, through qualifying, held four of 10 service games. Timofeeva's opening at the US Open is her second hard-court win of the season, and it took 1h 45m.
