Cristina Bucsa vs Antonia Ruzic preview
Cristina Bucsa will lock horns with Antonia Ruzic in the quarterfinals of the Limoges WTA 125 on Friday, December 12.
Trending
Bucsa is the top-seeded player in the last WTA challenger-level event of the 2025 season. She thrashed the World No. 345 Tiphanie Fiquet 6-2, 6-2 in the Round of 16 after beating Teodora Kostovic in the first round. Bucsa won the title in Limoges in 2023 and is expected to break her two-year title drought.
The Spaniard is enjoying her breakout season on the WTA tour, having reached her first career singles finals in Hong Kong. She made it to the fourth round of a major for the first time at the US Open, achieving a career-high ranking of World No. 29.
Antonia Ruzic, on the other hand, defeated the World No. 138 Linda Klimovicova in the previous round. She registered an easy 6-1, 6-2 win against the Polish player, winning 74% of her first serves and recording nine aces. Ruzic has been on a roll on the ITF-level this year, winning two titles and achieving a career-high ranking of No. 69.
Cristina Bucsa vs Antonia Ruzic head-to-head
Bucsa leads the head-to-head record against Ruzic with 1-0. The Spaniard won her only match against the Croatian 6-4, 7-5 at the Slovenia Open qualifier in 2022.
Cristina Bucsa vs Antonia Ruzic prediction
Bucsa is yet to drop a set in the 2025 Limoges WTA 125 and will look to finish the season with a title. She has a 12-13 win-loss record on the hard court this season after she made it to the finals of the Hong Kong Open in October. Bucsa's superior rankings and her current form make her a clear favorite against Ruzic in the quarterfinals.
The 22-year-old Ruzic has won two ITF-level titles this season and is the top-ranked Croatian player going into the 2026 season. Ruzic's best performance on the tour-level events came at the Monterrey Open, where she reached the quarterfinals this year. However, Ruzic lacks positive results against comparatively higher-ranked players and is unlikely to triumph over Bucsa in the quarterfinals.
Pick: Bucsa to win in straight sets.
