Victoria Mboko vs Caty McNally prediction
Victoria Mboko comfortably defeated Emerson Jones in straight sets to advance in Melbourne and register her first main draw win at the Australian Open. Mboko did not even face a break point as she raced ahead to win 6-4 6-1 after just an hour and 12 minutes. The Canadian has made a strong start to the season, having reached the final of the Adelaide International in the lead up to this tournament.
Her second-round opponent is Caty McNally. The American beat Himeno Sakatsume in straight sets to go through to the next stage of the tournament. She won 6-3 6-1 after one hour and 22 minutes, saving all six break points she offered up in the match.
Mboko is constantly improving and will fancy her chances of making a deep run at a major for the first time in her career. Her powerful game should have too much for McNally in round two.
