Madison Keys v Victoria Azarenka Head to Head

Victoria Azarenka leads Madison Keys 3-0 in WTA meetings. However, their Round-of-16 match in Guadalajara last season stretched to three sets – their only three-setter in the series.

Keys Ousts Wang to Make it Perfect Seven

Madison Keys has made another scintillating start to a year. When the American is on song, few players can live with her. Her power is seemingly unmatched.

Keys continues to be relentless in the pursuit of her first Grand Slam title, after taking another step towards that achievement in Melbourne Park.

The hard-hitting American, seeded 10th this fortnight, recovered from an early break deficit to ease past China’s World No. 79 Xinyu Wang 6-3 6-2, a rather more accomplished performance than her tough opener against Blinkova.

Keys fired twice the number of winners than Wang (26 to 13) and landed over 70% of first serves. What is perhaps of noticeable difference was her approach to the net, with Keys going 8 out of 10 to finish off points at will.

She will now be looking to reach the second week at the Australian Open for the sixth time in her career.

Azarenka Demolishes Podoroska

In just 57 minutes, enough to fit in a two-course meal, Victoria Azarenka demolished former Roland Garros semifinalist Nadia Podoroska 6-1 6-0 to reach the third round of the Australian Open.

The World No. 24 is looking to reach the second week of the year’s first Grand Slam for the second year in a row, and has looked in supreme form in her opening two matches.

Against Podoroska, Azarenka suffocated the court, using her power to pin the Argentine from the baseline and forcing her to generate errors uncontrollably.

Strangely enough, Azarenka hit fewer winners (6, compared to 10 for Podoroska), but it was the Argentine who posted an unwelcome number of unforced errors with 26, while Azarenka had a single-digit (6).

The Belarusian star secured six of seven break points, and reeled off 12 straight games in a clinical performance.

Keys v Azarenka Prediction and Tip

Azarenka hasn’t lost to Keys in three matches and only dropped one set in the series. But the American is undefeated since the turn of the year and her form mirrors that great run from the Australian Open last season. This should be a fascinating battle that should finally go the way of Keys.
