THE PREDICTION
World number 23 Barbora Krejcikova has coasted through her first two rounds at the Australian Open, conceding just nine games to Sara Bejlek and Clara Burel. The Czech set a career-high WTA world ranking of second early last season but an elbow injury saw her hampered in the defence of her 2021 Roland-Garros title before she recovered well late in the year to claim her fourth and fifth WTA titles in Ostrava and Tallinn. The Czech looks dangerous once again but so does world number 39 Anhelina Kalinina after she stunned 15th seed Petra Kvitova in straight sets on Wednesday. The 25-year-old lost on her Australian Open debut last year but she is now one win away from her best run at a major, in keeping with recent form that saw her make the quarter-finals in Hobart last week. Both players are probably at their best on clay but Krejcikova’s better experience at this level and in these conditions should see the Czech eventually through to the round of 16.
