Kudermetova Sinks Azarenka in an Epic
Veronika Kudermetova edged past Victoria Azarenka 2-6 7-6 6-4 in a thriller and is now one match away from reaching her second quarterfinal of 2023.
When the draw came out, this first-round match garnered a lot of attention and it duly delivered from a spectacle standpoint. The two players battled under the scorching heat in Adelaide for close to three hours.
Kudermetova played horribly in the first set, but that was due to the brilliance of Azarenka who was terrific in her return game. The Belarusian broke Kudermetova three times in the first set – something that is completely unheard of when playing the new World No. 9.
But Kudermetova cleaned up her act in the second set and began limiting her unforced errors. Her ace account also began to increase substantially and bailed her out of numerous close games. The Russian missed out on three set points at 6-5 in the second set, but won six straight points after being 0-3 down in the tiebreak. She was able to level things up in the breaker.
The decider was tight as both players continually held serve until at 4-4. Azarenka was the first to blink and Kudermetova got the break that she wanted to snatch a comeback win.

Alexandrova Eases Past Wild Card Fourlis
Ekaterina Alexandrova was in action on Monday, serving her way past Australian wild card Jamiee Fourlis 7-5 6-3 in 94 minutes. After losing in her opening round in Adelaide 1, Alexandrova’s 2023 season is now up and running this week.
The Russian is ranked 140 places above Fourlis, but there was little to suggest that gulf in ranking. Fourlis made a bright start, breaking the World No. 20 in the second game before going on to establish a 4-1 lead. But with the first set in sight, the Australian could not close it out and Alexandrova began to swing freely off the serve and forehand. She cut down her double-faults count and got the break back.
Alexandrova then nudged ahead for the first time in the match when Fourlis dropped her serve at a critical moment in the set. The Russian made no mistake when serving for the set.
In the second set, it was Alexandrova at her vintage best. She kept her momentum going, snatching an early break, and winning 49% return points. Fourlis was broken again right at the end to hand Alexandrova a second-round berth
Kudermetova v Alexandrova Prediction and Tip
Kudermetova fired 20 aces past Victoria Azarenka in the last round, and now sits just behind Aryna Sabalenka in the ace count in the early weeks of the season. And the good thing about her delivery, she doesn’t go for more in her second serve, hence keeping her double-faults count in check. If she serves as well as she did against the Belarusian, she will have the edge in this matchup.
