HAILEY BAPTISTE VS KAYLA DAY PREDICTION
World number 99 Kayla Day was set for a tough task against home hopeful Oceane Dodin on Monday but a last-minute withdrawal will see her have to recalibrate fast to face compatriot Hailey Baptiste.
22-year-old Baptiste set a career-high WTA world ranking of 96th earlier this month after some strong cameos on tour, including beating fellow youngster Robin Montgomery before a huge three-set exit to Madison Keys at Indian Wells in a highlight of her season so far.
A third-round qualifying loss to Tamara Zidansek, a semi-finalist here in 2021, is no embarrassment but 24-year-old Day should put up a stern test after recent success on the ITF circuit. Back lucky loser Baptiste to earn at least a set to leave this result up to chance. Keep this match far from accumulators.
