PAULA BADOSA VS CLARA TAUSON PREDICTION
Paula Badosa claimed her fourth career WTA title just a couple of days ago at the Washington Open, re-entering the top 50 in the rankings as a result. The Spaniard will therefore be feeling optimistic about her chances at the Canadian Open, although she has never made it past the second round of this tournament.
Badosa takes on Clara Tauson, who is appearing at this event for the first time in her career. The 21-year-old Dane has had some notable results this year, reaching the last 16 at the French open, while she also represented her country at the Paris Olympics last week, losing to Bianca Andreescu in what was a tough first-round draw.
Given how impressive Badosa was in her Washington Open triumph, she can be backed with confidence here and is likely to win in straight sets.
