THE PREDICTION
World number 35 Leylah Fernandez beat fellow youngster Sara Bejlek in straight sets on Sunday for a solid test early in a promising Australian Open campaign. The 21-year-old famously finished runner-up to Emma Raducanu at the 2021 US Open after a series of remarkable upsets over past and future world number ones Naomi Osaka, Angelique Kerber and Aryna Sabalenka but a serious injury a year later set her back some way. Fernandez found some of her best form again late last season, though, winning the Hong Kong Open before almost single-handedly dragging Canada to a first Billie Jean King Cup title in November. World number 82 Alycia Parks came back from a set down to oust a tricky qualifier in Daria Snigur but the American will have to improve quickly in this first meeting with Fernandez. The Canadian’s gutsy returning can take the racket out of the hands of big servers like Parks and she can be backed to reach the third round without dropping a set.
TIP: LEYLAH FERNANDEZ TO WIN 2-0
