THE PREDICTION
World number 12 Cam Norrie should be considered a serious threat to the latter stages of the Australian Open after backing-up his brilliant 2021 with a consistently high 2022, most notably reaching the semi-finals at Wimbledon before a four-set defeat to eventual champion Novak Djokovic. The 27-year-old beat Rafael Nadal for the first time in a three-set comeback at the United Cup and he claimed the only victory in a 4-1 defat to the USA with a brilliant performance against Taylor Fritz in the Sydney City Final. World number 78 Jiri Lehecka finished runner-up to Brandon Nakashima at the Next Gen ATP Finals late last season but the Czech is currently little threat to the top 20 on tour. Norrie needed three sets to beat Lehecka in their only previous meeting back in 2021 but the Brit, raised in New Zealand, should take his Auckland opener in two.
