Rogers Enjoyed her Best Season in 2021
2021 was Rogers best year on tour, with highlights including two victories over Ashleigh Barty in Grand Slams, first at the Australian Open and then in front of her home fans in New York.
She also reached the quarter-finals in doubles at the French Open, a feat she emulated this year in Melbourne, with partner Petra Matic.
Since reaching the third round in Adelaide, she had been struggling singles-wise, but then found some form in Indian Wells, where she beat Jelena Ostapenko in the second round before losing in three sets to Leylah-Annie Fernandez.
Again she beat Ostapenko in the second round in Miami, before her run was ended by another veteran, Veronika Kudermetova.

Australian Open Quarter-Finalist Kanepi
Kanepi may be getting to the advanced stage of her long career – it has been nearly nine years since her last win on the ATA tour, which came on clay in Brussels – but she is still capable of playing at the top level, as she demonstrated in January by reaching the quarter-finals of the Australian Open.
She does not play as much as she once did, and it was not until Indian Wells that she returned to action, beating the Olympic gold medallist in the second round, before her run was ended by the British qualifier, Harriet Dart.
And she reached the third round in Miami as well, defeating the Spanish world number 35, Sara Sorribes-Tormo in the process, before Ons Jabeur ended her interest in the tournament.
Rogers v Kanepi Prediction and Tip
These two appeared evenly matched on paper, so this might be a close match which could well go to three sets. The fact, though, that Rogers is playing on home soil, may just give her the edge.
Tip: Rogers to win in three sets: 3/1 (Click Here to Bet with bet365)
