Tough Start to 2023 for Hibino
Nao Hibino has endured a difficult start to the year, as she chases for her first main draw win at the Thailand Open. Hibino who is ranked outside the world’s top 100 has a major battle on her hands to rejoin the centurion club.
She’s had to qualify for main draws at Tour level, doing so successfully in Auckland but lost in the first round to Danka Kovinic. And for the first time since 2019, the 28-year-old Japanese star failed to qualify for the Australian Open, losing to Cristina Bucsa in the final round of qualifying.
But Hibino is overly optimistic and should fancy her chances of summoning her best form in Hua Hin. During the last staging of this tournament in 2020, she reached the semifinal after upsetting Elina Svitolina.
Can she pick up her first win of the season when she takes on Valeria Savinykh?

Savinykh Dismantles Stevanovic In Qualies
Valeria Savinykh entered the main draw for the Hua Hin Open following her emphatic 7-5 6-0 win over Natalija Stevanovic in the last round of qualifying.
Having lost to the Serbian in their only previous meeting back in 2018, Savinykh exacted revenge in a high-stakes encounter. But it wasn’t a pretty start to the match on Sunday as the Russian found herself on the backfoot trailing 0-3 with a double break.
But she composed herself and found her range. Savinykh quickly restored both breaks to level at 5-5, and remarkably won eight straight games from that moment on to cruise to victory.
Overall, she saved nine of 11 break points and won 58% return points.
Hibino v Savinykh Prediction and Tip
Savinykh is overdue for a main draw win at Tour level. It’s been a long and arduous 10 years in the making, but she has a potentially winnable opening match against an out-of-form Hibino.
