THE PREDICTION
Fellow Aussies Alexei Popyrin and Marc Polmans joined forces in Men’s Doubles here last season but they will face off in the first round of the singles one year on. World number 43 Popyrin will receive the vast majority of the support as a popular young home hopeful with plenty of potential in these conditions and he proved that last year with a shock five-set victory over eighth seed Taylor Fritz in the second round. The 24-year-old went on to win a second ATP title at the Umag Open on clay, from a set down to former Australian Open champion Stan Wawrinka, but he ended 2023 on a sour note after a gut-wrenching defeat to Matteo Arnaldi whilst representing Australian in the final of the Davis Cup. World number 156 Polmans was handed a wildcard to the main draw here in Melbourne after enjoying some strong work on the Challenger circuit in recent months but this looks far too steep of a climb. Back Popyrin to win outright, with both of his matches so far in 2024 tight three-setters.
TIP: ALEXEI POPYRIN TO WIN
