Monterrey Predictions & Picks — August 25, 2026

Tauson's 67.2% behind the first serve (against 57.1% for Zarazua) means break chances should be scarce in one direction. Tauson should have enough here, though Zarazua has the tools to make the scoreboard uncomfortable.

Diane Parry is clearly higher-rated on hard — our number puts Parry around 51%. A tiebreak or two would surprise nobody, with Parry fractionally more likely to land the big points.

A spot in the next round is at stake on Tuesday, when Maria Timofeeva goes up against Shuai Zhang in the Monterrey round of 32. Shuai Zhang is 4-6 across recent matches. Maria Timofeeva comes in at 7 wins from the last ten.

Neither the serve numbers nor the ratings separate these two by much, which is why our number stays close to even. Expect resistance, but the match-level math tilts clearly toward Zhang.

The serve is where this match separates: Bondar has been winning 64.5% of first-serve points to Bucsa's 58.7%, and on hard that gap compounds fast. This one is close to a coin flip, and the lean toward Bondar is exactly that — a lean.
