DANIELLE COLLINS VS CAROLINE DOLEHIDE PREDICTION

30-year-old Danielle Collins moved back up to world number 10 after reaching her third final of what has been an incredible last season on tour, although she was beaten for the first time – and handily – by Madison Keys on Saturday.

The American will be able to recalibrate in time to make short work of the next few rounds at Roland-Garros, where she reached the quarter-finals in 2020, and she could end up breaking her career-high WTA world ranking of seventh with a deep run if she out-performs Qinwen Zheng, Maria Sakkari and Marketa Vondrousova above her.

World number 60 Caroline Dolehide has been unfortunate to draw one of the form players on tour this season, with only the likes of Iga Swiatek, Aryna Sabalenka and Elena Rybakina likely higher on players’ ‘to avoid’ lists. Collins comfortably won both of their previous tour-level encounters and she can be backed to take this opener in straight sets too.
