Harriet Dart and Kamilla Rakhimova meet in the Round of 16 at The HSBC Championships on Friday, June 12, at The Queen’s Club in London, England, with the match set to be played on grass. Dart enters as the betting favorite at -135, while Rakhimova is listed as the underdog at +105. The odds imply a 57.4% chance of victory for Dart and a 48.8% chance for Rakhimova.
Dart, ranked No. 160 in the world, will look to build on a 2026 season that has produced a 2-2 match record and a 5-6 set record. She has averaged 1.8 aces per match this year and has won 21 break points. Her tournament title odds are set at +2800, reflecting a lower but still possible path to a surprise run in the event.
Rakhimova, ranked No. 78, comes into the match with a stronger overall résumé and a busier season. She has compiled a 12-15 record in 2026 and a 27-34 set mark, along with 1.6 aces per match. Her break-point total stands at 104, showing she has been more active and competitive across the season. Despite that, she is not favored in this matchup and carries +3300 odds to win the tournament.
The contrast between the two players creates an intriguing matchup on grass. Dart’s lower ranking and lighter workload in 2026 are balanced by her status as the home-continent competitor and the market’s slight preference for her in this contest. Rakhimova, meanwhile, brings the higher ranking and broader season experience, but enters as the outsider according to the betting line.
The winner will advance deeper into the HSBC Championships draw, where grass-court form and consistency will be key. With both players looking to make a statement in the Round of 16, the match presents a close contest in which small margins could decide the result.
