THE PREDICTION

25-year-old Anhelina Kalinina enjoyed a transformative season last year on her favoured clay to set a career-high WTA world ranking of 34th and the Ukrainian looks in good shape early-on in 2023. A tight defeat in two fierce tiebreaks to Victoria Azarenka is a decent way to lose your opening match of a new season at last week’s Adelaide 1 and she conceded just three games to Rebecca Marino on Monday to get Hobart underway well. World number 71 Tatjana Maria is a fascinating player at 35 years old whose best run of her career at Wimbledon last season, where she lost in the semi-finals in three sets to Ons Jabeur, went unrewarded thanks to the ranking points controversy. A straight-sets win over Aussie wildcard Talia Gibson was to be expected in the first round but it is hard to tell where the German’s game is right now. Kalinina looks good enough to back to win this first meeting with Maria outright but you could be forgiven for taking her to earn at least a set instead.
