It's the US vs Britain at the WTA event in Madrid on Wednesday, when Taylor Townsend and Katie Boulter will go up against each other. The early betting shows preference for the US player, but we can easily make a case for Boulter, who really should be the favorite ahead of this clash. While she's not, she's well worth betting on to come out on top.
After all, when these two players last met, Boulter won in straight sets, while it is Boulter, who is the higher-ranked of the two players, who has won each of the previous two renewals of this match. That's not easy to ignore, nor is the fact that Townsend hasn't played on clay since the middle of 2025. In contrast, Boulter has played several clay-court matches in recent weeks and should be more ready for this test than her opponent.

Our Taylor Townsend vs Katie Boulter Prediction
Having warmed up nicely by playing four recent clay-court matches, Katie Boulter looks a little better placed to defeat Taylor Townsend than the early odds suggest. After all, the British player should be much closer to her clay-court best than Townsend, who has not played competitively on this surface in nearly a year. If we also factor in that Boulter has won each of her previous two matches against the US player then it's really not difficult to conclude that odds of +100 are generous.
