THE PREDICTION

25-year-old Soonwoo Kwon’s fearsome game fell into place this week at Adelaide 2 to win his second ATP title and he will move back up to a career-high world ranking of 52nd coming into Melbourne. A four-match winning streak over top players in Pablo Carreno Busta, Mikael Ymer, Jack Draper and Roberto Bautista Agut makes the Korean a serious threat in the earlier rounds of the Australian Open, where he impressed last season in a five-set victory over Holger Rune and a five-set defeat to Denis Shapovalov. World number 123 Christopher Eubanks was awarded a wildcard to the main draw of the Australian Open after some excellent results on the Challenger circuit late last season and the American fares a decent chance at the upset with Soonwoo Kwon needing to recalibrate well from a tour final to first round tennis – something few cope with well on the ATP tour. The Korean won their previous meeting in three sets at the Qatar Open last season and he can be backed to come through outright here, with four or even five sets quite likely.
