Roland Garros got off to a fast start this weekend, and now it's already time for the second round. One of the matchups will feature a showdown between American Madison Keys and Britain’s Katie Boulter, in front of an enthusiastic French crowd.
Madison Keys, the No. 8 seed, kicked off her season in the best possible way by winning the first Grand Slam title of her career at the Australian Open. A proven force on hard courts, she also claimed the Adelaide title earlier this year. The 30-year-old American comes into this tournament with plenty of pressure to back up her early-season success in this second major of the year. However, her recent clay-court form has fallen short of expectations, with a quarterfinal appearance in Madrid marking her best result.
Katie Boulter, meanwhile, seems to enjoy playing in front of the Parisian fans, having recently captured the title at the Paris Challenger, where she beat local favorite Chloé Paquet (ranked No. 119). She got off to a rocky start in her opening-round match here, dropping the first set to France’s Carole Monnet (world No. 231), but bounced back impressively to win 6-7(4), 6-1, 6-1.

Our Madison Keys vs Katie Boulter Prediction
There’s a clear gap in level between Madison Keys and Katie Boulter heading into this second-round clash at Roland Garros. One is a Grand Slam champion earlier this year; the other has yet to reach the second week of a major. We’re expecting a dominant performance from the American, much like her straight-sets win over Daria Saville in the first round.
