Qualifier Lulu Sun goes on a revenge mission when she meets Caty McNally in the Guangzhou Open quarter-finals. The two meet for the first time since the 2018 French Open, and we have a prediction for this match below.
Sun will approach this encounter more confident, fired up by four straight wins, all in straight sets. Her journey here started in the qualifying rounds.
In the main draw, she shocked the top seed, Jessica Bouzas Maneiro, before beating Yafan Wang in the last round. It was much easier in the second round, as she only dropped four games and needed just one hour.
That stretched her run to 30-25 for the season, and she is 104th in the live ranking.
Like her opponent here, McNally will also be gunning for a quarter-final place for the first time on tour this season. Her best showing in 2025 was the third round in Montreal, while she has spent considerable time in the ITF tournaments.
A three-set win against Ajla Tomljanovic earned the American her place in the last eight. With that, she has now compiled a 46-20 record and arrives for this game sitting 84th in the live rank.
When she first met with Sun in 2018, McNally won 2-1 and went all the way to the French Open final. She’s no longer in that form and comes here on four defeats in eight matches and sitting 84th in the live rankings.

Our Lulu Sun vs Catherine McNally Prediction
Lulu Sun is a much better player than she was in her first meeting with Caty McNally seven years ago. Meanwhile, McNally has dropped from the player who beat Sun on her way to the Roland Garros final. She meets a confident Sun, who, for the fourth straight competition, beat a top seed.
It doesn’t help the American that she has dropped a set or more in five of her last six matches. On the other hand, Sun has four wins, all with straight sets. Our prediction for Lulu Sun v Caty McNally is that Lulu Sun wins.
