Also Read:
Kanepi Continues to Thrive at the Slams
Kanepi scored an impressive win over former Australian Open champion Kerber in her opening round. The Estonian then backed up this win with another straight sets win over Bouzkova.
During this 6-2 7-6(3) win, Kanepi won 72% of points behind her first serve and hit 3 aces past her opponent. She was able to break the Bouzkova serve on 5 occasions, managing to win 51% of points when returning. The 36-year-old crushed 27 winners during the encounter and won 67% when approaching the net to seal her place in the third round against Inglis.
Prior to this, Kanepi kicked off her 2022 season in the Summer Set 1 tournament. In her first match of the year, she got the better of Cristian 6-7(2) 7-6(7) 6-2 in a 2-hour 48-minute tie. However, her progress was halted, losing out to 6-2 3-6 6-3 to Konjuh in the next round.
Kanepi continues to play well in slams, and the Estonian will fancy her chances against unseeded Inglis in the 3rd round.

Inglis Giving the Aussies Plenty to Cheer About
Like Kanepi, Inglis also scored an impressive win in her opening round, defeating US Open finalist Leylah Fernandez 6-4 6-2. The Australian then got the better of Baptiste in the second round in a tough 3-set battle, eventually prevailing 7-6(4) 2-6 6-2 to reach the round-of-32.
Throughout the encounter, there was a lot of breaks, with each player being broken 6 times. The key difference between the two players was the second serve points won, with Inglis winning 59% compared to just 45% for Baptiste. The 24-year-old was able to hit 24 winners and win 10/13 points at the net to eventually see off her American opponent.
Before the Australian Open, Inglis competed in Adelaide, reaching the second round after beating Kovinic in the opening round but then losing 6-2 6-1 to Zidansek.
Both players will see this as a great opportunity to reach the 4th round as they’re both unseeded. A round-of-16 birth would set up an encounter with either Vondrousova or Sabalenka.
Kanepi v Inglis Prediction and Tip
This will be a fascinating match to watch. Based upon Kanepi’s ability to perform at the slams, she is the favourite to advance to the 4th round as her power will be too much for Inglis to handle.
Tip: Kanepi to win: 2/7 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
