The teenager hasn’t had the easiest of years. Ever since her Grand Slam final stint at the 2021 US Open, she has had to rediscover herself. She did, however, add another title to her name by beating Camila Osorio 6-7 (5), 6-4, 7-6 (3) to defend her Monterrey Open.

The Canadian also produced a remarkable result at the French Open this year by reaching the quarterfinals, where she was taken out by Martina Trevisan 6-2, 6-7 (3), 6-3.

Fernandez has been out of action since Roland Garros, where she suffered a stress fracture to her right foot and made her comeback at the Canadian Open.

Haddad Maia, meanwhile, has enjoyed success on grass this season. She won her maiden WTA singles title at the Nottingham Open, beating Alison Riske 6-4, 1-6, 6-3 in the final. She went on to win her second consecutive title at the Birmingham Classic when her opponent Shuai Zhang retired mid-match in the title clash.

Leylah Fernandez vs Beatriz Haddad Maia prediction

The home favorite will have the crowd’s full support during her second-round encounter
The home favorite will have the crowd’s full support during her second-round encounter

Home favorite Fernandez will certainly have the crowd’s full support during this clash. The Canadian has a better record on the surface than Haddad Maia. She dwells on her forehand to win points. The counterpuncher is known to take balls early to gain control of the game and throw her opponents off-balance. She goes for half volleys but lacks accuracy.

Haddad Maia likes to actively use her forehand as well. She doesn’t shy away from coming to the net. An experienced doubles player, the Brazilian will look to take advantage of the Canadian’s lack of match practice leading up to the Toronto event.

In an exciting encounter between the two left-handers, Fernandez should come out on top and advance to the next round.

Pick: Fernandez to win in three sets.
