Playing Styles & Prediction
Boulter is back on the surface that suits her best after her Olympic foray and will feel encouraged by the fact that in both her encounters with Haddad Maia, she has had the measure of the Brazilian.
Boulter has made good use of her solid serve and heavy groundstrokes, and she will be facing another consistent baseliner today although she might find the leftie hard to manage at times.
Boulter had to fight her way into the second round, and should feel well prepped for what could well be another three setter, but she starts with an edge.
Prediction: Boulter in three sets.
