Katie Boulter vs Renata Zarazua prediction
An early exit at Wimbledon, her home Grand Slam summed up what has been a frustrating 2025 for Katie Boulter. She was expected to potentially become a perennial title challenger on tour, but instead has lost her status as the British women’s number one to Emma Raducanu, likely a tough pill to swallow.
Renata Zarazua will come into this match as the underdog but she is more than capable of causing a shock when taking into account the form of Boulter. A lot will depend on which version of Zarazua we see on court in Montreal. If it’s the Zarazua capable of making improbable returns and eye-catching winners when on the back foot, then the Mexican stands a real chance.
Whilst Boulter understandably starts as the favourite, there is real value in backing Zarazua to spring a surprise. We often see a few early on in tournaments such as this and Zarazua has an opportunity against an out-of-form opponent.
