The first-round matches of Indian Wells are set to begin this evening. And prior to these games starting, I’ve selected an interesting first round match between Giorgi and Boulter to supply some tennis predictions today. These two might have never played, but I expect this match to be a blockbuster!
Our favourite Camila Giorgi vs Katie Boulter predictions

This isn’t exactly a section of the draw that either of these players would like to be in. I say this because in this section, the third round opponent will likely be Iga Swiatek, which is far from ideal. However, while you can check out my Indian Wells 2024 preview with those details whenever you like, let’s bring things back into focus here.
Who will win this match between Giorgi and Boulter, and what are the best markets to cover? Let me show you.
Boulter to win 2-0 @ 19/20 (1.95)
Following her results last week, I cannot say any other result occurring here other than a routine win for Katie Boulter. She is in red hot form, while her opponent hasn’t competed for over a month, not to mention she is ranked outside of the top 100 at the moment.
Under 20.5 games @ 17/20 (1.85)
In her title run in San Diego last week, Katie Boulter dropped just two sets in the entire tournament. Bear in mind she beat the likes of Haddad Maia, Vekic, Navarro, and Kostyuk in the process, who are all ranked far higher than Giorgi. So for me, Boulter should be able to win this match and keep things under 20.5 games.
Camila Giorgi vs Katie Boulter odds
The most recent moneyline odds reflect a 33.33% win probability for Giorgi, whereas Boulter has a 74.10% chance to win this match.
Can Katie Boulter keep her great form going in the BNP Paribas Open 2024?
This is obviously a tasty first round encounter, especially since Giorgi is capable of producing fireworks on the court. But let me cover a quick preview to give further insight into this match.
Camila Giorgi preview
Camila Giorgi has previously been a top level player, and she is well known for her aggressive style of tennis. And while she hasn’t been playing much in recent weeks, we cannot forget that she’s been ranked as high as 26 in her career, and she’s won 4 WTA titles. So it’s not like she is an easy first round opponent – far from it.
Katie Boulter preview
Boulter’s San Diego title run last week is the biggest of her career, and it’s taken her to a ranking of 27 in the world. This is a huge effort, and she must be feeling super confident coming into Indian Wells. However, she must remain focused to successfully navigate this first-round match, as Giorgi can be a threat, even if she hasn’t played much of late.
Giorgi vs Boulter head to head
There is no head to head record between these two since they’ve never played one another in a WTA event.
