Ashleigh Barty vs Paula Badosa: Prediction
Barty is a great player on clay, as her French Open triumph in 2019 tells us. She has got a great kick serve too which she uses to perfection on the slow but bouncy clay courts. Badosa is no slouch on clay either, and has reached the fourth round of the French open. But Barty has form with her and should win this match.
Match Prediction: Ashleigh Barty will beat Paula Badosa in three sets.
