THE PREDICTION
Former world number one Naomi Osaka beat Caroline Garcia in straight sets on Monday to avenge her defeat to the Frenchwoman on her return to the Australian Open last month. The 26-year-old will be feeling ecstatic with her performance against Garcia after a series of defeats to very tough opposition since her comeback from maternity leave, so far practicing what she has preached about patience and perspective to look a sudden factor here in Doha. World number 67 Petra Martic overcame Arantxa Rus in three tight sets on Monday to snap a three-match losing streak but her results so far this season suggest facing a suddenly bolstered Osaka is too steep of a task. Osaka will find that opponents will enjoy a little boost of their own against her as they aim to upset the narrative on her journey back to the top but back her to win this first encounter with Martic outright, with the first set likely hers on residual adrenaline.
TIP: NAOMI OSAKA TO WIN
