Diane Parry vs Petra Martic prediction
Diane Parry is featuring at Wimbledon for the fourth time in her career, all consecutive, with her best showing coming on debut when she reached the third round in 2022.
The Frenchwoman's ranking has dropped in recent times and she finds herself down at 118 in the world, meaning she had to come through the qualifiers reach the main draw.
She will take on veteran Petra Martic, who herself has slipped to 138 in the WTA rankings. The 34-year-old has progressed beyond the first round on each of her last five appearances at SW19, but it appears the Croat's best days are behind her.
With Martic also battling through the qualifiers, this is a difficult one to call. It could be an edgy battle between two players not at their best, and we're expecting this to go the distance.
