Coco Gauff opens her grass-court season as a hands-down favorite to win over Paola Badosa in the second round of the 2026 Berlin Ladies Open.
Coco Gauff will begin her grass-court season in Berlin, aiming for the first grass-court title of her career. Gauff hopes to rebound from a disappointing third-round exit at Roland Garros a few weeks ago. Gauff also seeks to claim her first win on the surface in two years after going winless on grass in 2025.
Paola Badosa finally conquered her demons to beat Suzan Lamens 6-3, 6-2, ending a five-match losing streak. Badosa improved to 23-17 on grass, but more importantly, she gets a chance to sharpen her skills against a top-10 competition. The Spaniard owns 15 career wins over top-10 opponents, but she’s 0-2 against these players this year.

Our Paula Badosa vs Coco Gauff Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Coco Gauff dismantles Paola Badosa in straight sets.
Caesars Sportsbooks posts Gauff at -320 moneyline and -120 to win in straight sets. This doesn’t come as a surprise, as Gauff remains a top-tier player on the tour despite her shortcomings at Roland Garros.
Gauff, who lost her opening-round matches at Berlin (lost to Xinyu Wang 3-6, 3-6) and Wimbledon Open (lost to Dayana Yastremska 6-7, 1-6) last year, will kick off her grass-court campaign this year with fresher legs and more motivation to excel on the surface where she has yet to win a WTA title.
On the other hand, Badosa is trying to turn her season around after dealing with several injuries and compiling a 10-13 record halfway into the 2026 WTA season.
Badosa may have won the last two head-to-head matches while holding a 4-3 record against Gauff, but she hasn’t claimed enough wins this year to make her a legitimate threat to the two-time Grand Slam winner. Badosa is 3-8 against the top-100 players and 0-2 against top-10 players on the WTA Tour this year.
