Victoria Mboko starts her Qatar Open debut with a first-round showdown with the unseeded Marie Bouzkova. The winner of their second career meeting will play Barbora Krejcikova or Peyton Stearns next. Read on for our prediction of this match.
Marie Bouzkova is having an inconsistent start to the season. Through eight matches, the Czech star has won the same number of matches as she has lost.
The 27-year-old hasn’t taken to the court since a second-round elimination at the Australian Open. Bouzkova, currently ranked 37th in the WTA, is back in Doha after missing last season’s edition.
Victoria Mboko defeated Bouzkova in three sets on her way to a historic Canadian Open title last season. The teenage sensation had a breakout year in 2025, and her success in Montreal marked her first tour triumph.
Now a two-time tour champion, the Canadian will hope for a similar domino effect as six months ago as she seeks to continue a strong start to the year.
Mboko, the world number 13, has won eight of 11 matches, producing a fourth-round exit in Melbourne and a runners-up finish in Adelaide.
The last two losses Mboko has suffered have come against top 10 players. She was defeated at the Australian Open in her last appearance by world number one Aryna Sabalenka.
