Player profile

Annika Penickova builds her own path alongside a tennis twin

Annika Penickova grew up in a tennis family with identical twin Kristina, but her record has distinct markers of its own. At 14, Annika upset the No. 12 seed in the first round of the 2024 US Open girls' event. The sisters had already reached the 2023 New York junior doubles quarterfinals and later won the 2025 Australian Open girls' doubles title together. Their parents played professionally in the Czech Republic, their father Tomas coaches them, and their grandmother has homeschooled them in Czech. Annika also represented the United States in junior team competition, connecting family development with a national pathway.

US Open story

Annika Penickova enters senior US Open qualifying in 2026

Penickova's 2026 first-round opponent is Poland's Martyna Kubka. This match belongs to the women's qualifying draw, a different competitive record from Annika's previous junior appearances in New York. She has not yet reached the senior US Open main draw and would need three qualifying wins to do so. Kubka is older and has accumulated more professional seasons, while Penickova arrives with recent elite junior doubles success and growing singles experience. The matchup is best understood as a transition test in which Annika must turn the timing and pressure skills developed in juniors into a first senior victory at the same venue.

What to watch

Annika Penickova versus Martyna Kubka fan guide

Penickova's shared success with Kristina shows comfort around the net and under team pressure, but senior singles asks her to manage every momentum shift alone. Kubka can use her experience to keep the teenager in extended service games and make her solve repeated patterns. For Annika, the fan focus should be decision quality rather than the novelty of twins, including recognizing the short ball, defending the second serve and resetting after a rushed error. Her 2024 junior upset proved that the New York setting itself is not unfamiliar. The new challenge is the heavier, more consistent ball of an established professional opponent.
