She had a promising start to the season, lifting her maiden WTA title in her first finals appearance. But ever since making the stunning run to the title in Lyon, she has found the going tough for the rest of the season.
Alycia Parks has a season record of 17-22 across levels and is currently on a three-match losing streak. Since losing in the second qualifying round in Cincinnati, Parks went down in the first rounds in the US Open and the San Diego Open.
The 22-year-old Parks, who defeated Caroline Garcia for the title in Lyon, also reached the third round in Madrid and the quarterfinals in Rabat in her other significant performances this season.

Davis’s Recent Form is Concerning
Taking on Parks is world no. 55 Lauren Davis, who lost in the first round in Guadalajara last year.
The American brings a 25-19 season record into the tournament but she has struggled in recent past, having won just one of her last six matches across levels.
But overall, she has been in decent touch this year. Davis won her second WTA title and a first since 2017 in Hobart. She also reached the semifinal in Strasbourg and the final four in the WTA 125 in Reus.
It’s been eight tournaments now that Davis has found it hard to make an impact.
It will be interesting to see if she can get off to a good start in the tournament.
Alycia Parks v Lauren Davis Prediction and Tip
The last time they met, it was a three set affair in Montreal. It could once again go the distance. Davis has a touch better record on hard court, but having lost the match to Parks last month may play on her mind. Overall it is expected to be an even contest with parks edging out Davis again.
Tips:
- Moderate Risk Tip: Parks to win: 5/6 (with bet365)
- Moderate Risk Tip: Over 22.5 games in the match: 5/6 (with bet365)
