THE PREDICTION

Defending champion Camila Giorgi overcame world number nine Emma Raducanu in straight sets on Tuesday, including a 7-0 tiebreak in which she found her very best rhythm. The swapping between Toronto and Montreal each year at the Canada Masters means that Giorgi is not defending her title in exactly the same conditions she won in Montreal last season but it will be fascinating to see how far the Italian can go this week with little recent form. World number 37 Elise Mertens also came into the Canada Masters with an unconvincing recent record but the Belgian is always at her best on the biggest stages. A straight-sets victory over Anna Bondar was expected but assured and this looks a tight call now as a result. Mertens leads their head-to-head 2-1 but Giorgi won their previous encounter in the first round here last season, on hey way to a first Masters title. The sensible option looks to be backing the Italian to win at least a set here and leaving the winner up to chance.
