Linda Noskova vs Darja Semenistaja prediction
Linda Noskova enjoyed a breakthrough season in 2025 and is now close to breaking into the top 10 of the world rankings. While she was unable to pick up a title, she was consistent as he got through to three finals, with one of those including a WTA 1000 event in Beijing. The 21-year-old began her 2026 campaign in Brisbane but could only make round three after a loss to Mirra Andreeva.
She faces Darja Semenistaja in round one. The Latvian is ranked 96 in the world. Semenistaja is yet to play in the main draw of an event this season after qualifying losses in Auckland and Hobart in the lead up to the first slam of the year.
They have played each other twice at lower-level events, with Noskova winning both matches without the drop of a set. The Czech will be expected to continue her perfect record against Semenistaja.
