THE PREDICTION
World number 32 Marie Bouzkova takes a four-match losing streak into the first round at Wimbledon, where she thoroughly impressed last season with a huge run to quarter-finals. The 24-year-old upset then world number eight Danielle Collins in the first round this time last summer and then stunned in-form Caroline Garcia in the round of 16 before a three-set defeat to eventual runner-up Ons Jabeur to look a dark horse just inside the seeds. World number 115 Simona Waltert qualified without dropping a set this week to make her Wimbledon debut and the Swiss won her overall major bow in Paris to at least threaten an upset here. Bouzkova lost in the first round of Eastbourne last season before her run at SW19 and a three-set exit to Beatriz Haddad-Maia, at the same stage this week, was no embarrassment at all. Back the Czech to win outright for caution’s sake.
