Putintseva Begins Season With Two Defeats
Yulia Putintseva’s season began at the United Cup as Kazakhstan’s bid ended in the group stage. Putintseva accounted for two defeats in singles, losing to Belinda Bencic of Switzerland and Iga Swiatek of Poland.
Despite being the country’s WTA No. 1 in the United Cup (in the absence of Elena Rybakina), Putintseva failed to inspire her country to qualify or win a tie. Kazakhstan finished their campaign with 1-9 match win record and lost both of their ties against the Swiss and the Poles.
For Putintseva, it is back to the drawing board as she plots her 14th season on the WTA Tour, and remarkably at only 28. She ended her 2022 season with a 26-21 record across all levels and did not win a match on Australian soil.
She will be hoping Hobart will bring a change in fortunes this week as she makes her third visit to Tasmania and the first since 2018.

Liu Beaten By Teen Noskova
Claire Liu came through qualifying in Adelaide last week, beating Magdalena Frech and Katerina Siniakova in convincing fashion. And in the first round, she came from a set down to dispatch Priscilla Hon, the home wild card.
Liu battled Czech teen sensation Linda Noskova in the second round in a battle of qualifiers. Despite sitting almost 40 places above her younger opponent, and with loads of Tour-level experience, Liu was outplayed by Noskova for the most part.
The American went down 2-6 2-6, failing to break Noskova’s serve during the match. As for her own delivery, she was broken four times. Liu is slowly climbing the rankings even though it has taken her a while to get into the WTA’s Top 50.
She is currently ranked 59th in the world – her career-best so far, and could do with a deep run in Hobart.
Putintseva v Liu Prediction and Tip
Liu clearly favors hard courts and is not frightened at the prospect of playing higher-ranked opponents. Last year she shockingly defeated Ons Jabeur in the Tunisian’s home country at the Jasmin Open. And given Putintseva’s tough start to life in 2023, it is no surprise to see the American being favored to win in Hobart.
