Katerina Siniakova vs Clara Tauson prediction
Clara Tauson will be feeling positive about her start to 2026.
The Dane lost a hard-fought encounter in three at the third hurdle at the Australian Open and it was Deja vu in a tight semi final in Abu Dhabi last time out.
The world number 16 now meets Katerina Siniakova, who hasn’t quite found the level that saw her shine in Seoul and Wuhan late last year.
The Czech did win their only previous encounter but that was on clay back in 2021 when Clara was a teenager just beginning to make her mark on tour.
The 11th seed knows how dangerous the world number 40 can be, but will feel her power gives her the advantage in these conditions and if she plays a clean match she should progress from what could be a tight one overall.
Katerina Siniakova vs Clara Tauson tip: Over 2.5 sets
