Keys on a Two-Match Losing Streak
Having suffered a first round loss at the Qatar Open this week, Madison Keys will be looking to overcome the Doha setback and recapture the form that saw her get off to a 7-1 start in January.
The world no. 23 won all five of her matches during the United States’ triumphant run at the United Cup. She followed that up by winning the first two rounds at the Australian Open, however, Victoria Azarenka handed her the first defeat of the season in the third round of the first major.
Keys then participated at the Qatar Open, but was knocked out in the opening round by Jelena Ostapenko.
Keys, who is a six-time champion on the tour from 11 finals, had a 30-20 record last year, which included a title in Adelaide-2.
This is going to be the American’s second appearance in Dubai. The 28-year-old played in 2021 but lost in the second round of the tournament.

Paolini Comes Through Qualifiers
After failing to go past the qualifying round in 2020 and 2022, Jasmine Paolini finally made it past the qualifiers this year.
The 27-year-old Italian defeated Margarita Betova 6-4, 6-1 in the first qualifying round and then ousted France’s Océane Dodin 6-1, 7-5 in the second qualifying round on Saturday.
Ranked no. 64th in the world, Paolini dominated Dodin in the first set, breaking her twice and going 1-0 up. Dodin raised her game in the second set and Paolini had to come back from a break down on two occasions. She finally broke for a third time in the set and sealed the contest to reach the main draw.
It’s been an up and down season for Paolini so far in the tournament. She is 5-5 from all matches including qualifying rounds and her best came in Lyon where she was a quarterfinalist.
A finalist in Transylvania Open last year, can Paolini win her Dubai opener on Sunday?
Keys v Paolini Prediction and Tip
Although she is coming off two back-to-back defeats, Keys will look to quickly put the setbacks behind her and regain her January form. She has looked the better player so far in the season and will have the edge in the opener.
