Emma Navarro of the United States gets her North American hard-court season started against Maria Sakkari of Greece in the second round of the 2025 Mubadala Citi Open on Wednesday in Washington, D.C.
Navarro is fresh off a decent finish at the 2025 Wimbledon Open, picking up three wins before losing to Mirra Andreeva in the round of 16. Navarro has just dropped off the WTA top-10, but getting back into the elite circle quickly remains a strong possibility, especially if she can deliver a deep run in this WTA 500 event in Washington.
Sakkari progressed to the second round with a straight-set win over Katie Boulter of Great Britain 6-3 6-4. She seized control by winning 30 points off the first serves and breaking the Brit four times. The result handed Sakkari only her sixth hard-court win in 2025.

Our Maria Sakkari vs Emma Navarro Prediction
Why should you pick Emma Navarro to cover -3.5 Games? This is the time of the year when Navarro usually plays her best brand of tennis. The start of the North American hard-court swing offers Navarro the chance to re-establish her place in the elite circle after falling off the WTA top-10 recently.
With an 82-57 record on hard court, Navarro will be one of the names to watch out for in the upcoming tournaments, including the 2025 US Open, where she aims to improve on her semifinal finish at last year’s tournament.
Despite going through another disappointing season, Sakkari remains a dangerous opponent because of the reputation that precedes her as a former top-3 player in the world. However, Sakkari would have to put together a perfect game to pull off an upset over an in-form and motivated Navarro on her favorite surface.
