THE LOWDOWN
STEFANIE VOEGELE
31-year-old Stefanie Voegele set a career-high WTA world ranking of 42nd back in 2013. The Swiss has previously struggled at Grand Slams, with a solitary third round exit her best showing from Roland-Garros in 2013.
DARIA KASATKINA
World number 23 Daria Kasatkina is in serious form right now with two semi-finals reached this season already at Melbourne 1 and the Sydney Tennis Classic, losing to eventual champions Amanda Anisimova and Paula Badosa, respectively. The Russian set a career-high WTA world ranking of 10th back in 2018 and she recently won the St. Petersburg Open late last year for a fourth career WTA title.
THE PREDICTION
This could be something of a mis-match between Stefanie Voegele and Daria Kasatkina with the Swiss’ last tour-level win coming in July at the Ladies Open Lausanne. 24-year-old Kasatkina should be considered one of many dark horses in the seriously strong WTA draw here in Melbourne after back-to-back semi-final exits in 2022 and she can start right here in comfortable straight sets.
