THE PREDICTION
World number 23 Jelena Ostapenko conceded just four games to Lauren Davis on Tuesday to suggest she is in the mood to make a deep run in Guadalajara. The 25-year-old reached the semi-finals of the Qatar Masters earlier this season soon after claiming her fifth WTA title at the Dubai Tennis Championships and she should need a top 30 player to oust her from the draw here given her opener. World number 430 Eugenie Bouchard is well capable of that sort of level as a former world number five. The Canadian is still at the start of a long road back to full tour life after her latest injury lay-off saw her miss more than a year from tour but she claimed her third win since doing so with a straight-sets result against qualifier Kayla Day. 28-year-old Bouchard is something of an anomaly on tour right now, well capable of upsetting the odds here if her recent three-set tussle with Belinda Bencic is anything to by. For this reason, taking Ostapenko to win outright looks the sensible move.
