THE PREDICTION

World number one Iga Swiatek looks set to remain as the dominant force on the WTA tour in 2023 after winning eight of her 11 WTA titles in 2022, including a second Roland-Garros and the US Open. The Pole’s form dimmed a little at the WTA Finals last time out on tour but that was to be expected given her incredible year, including a 37-match winning streak that saw four Masters titles claimed alongside her Stuttgart title and victory over Coco Gauff at Roland-Garros. World number 51 Yulia Putintseva looked in decent shape in a straight-sets defeat to Belinda Bencic on Thursday but there are few players on the tour that can reasonably trouble Swiatek at her current level. There is always the possibility of a slow and shaky start for the Pole but Swiatek can be backed to start 2023 with a straight sets win.
