THE PREDICTION
World number 29 Sebastian Korda has all the potential of a future top 10, if not top five, player but there are some consistency concerns that have not been helped by a series of unfortunate injuries. The 23-year-old finished runner-up to Novak Djokovic at the Adelaide 500 before an incredible run to the quarter-finals here saw upsets over Daniil Medvedev and Hubert Hurkacz but an injury saw him retire in the last eight against Karen Khachanov. There will be a touch of fate about Korda’s early rounds this time around if he can find something like that previous level but a limp defeat to eventual champion Jiri Lehecka in Adelaide on Friday leaves more questions than answers. World number 132 Vit Kopriva qualified for his Grand Slam debut without dropping a set this week but the Czech has not been rewarded a kind draw at all. Korda should be winning this match in straight sets but it would be wise to take the American to win outright whilst we wait to see his level in Melbourne.
TIP: SEBASTIAN KORDA TO WIN
