Claire Liu vs Katie Boulter prediction

Katie Boulter beat Viktorija Golubic for the second time in as many weeks to progress to the round of 16 in Hong Kong.

The Brit followed up a dominant win over the Swiss in Osaka by claiming a slightly more awkward 6-2 7-6 success this time around.

The eighth seed will now take on world number 102, Claire Liu for the first time after the American disposed of qualifier Tatiana Prozorova by a 6-2 6-4 scoreline.

Boulter is the clear favourite in terms of ranking and her recent, late-season resurgence and we don’t see enough in Liu’s pedigree and season overall to consider backing the upset.
