Despite a strong finish to the previous season, in which she reached the final at Indian Wells, Azarenka has struggled so far this season. She made her first appearance of the season at the warm-up tournament in Adelaide, where she was ousted by Iga Swiatek in the quarter-finals. Later on, in the fourth round of the Australian Open, she was upset by Barbora Krejcikova. The World No. 17 does, however, enter the WTA 500 after high-profile victories on the Australian hardcourts past Paula Badosa and Elina Svitolina.
Kudermetova, after an inconsistent performance in 2021, sprang into the scene in 2022, reaching the final of her debut tournament appearance in Melbourne. In the final, the Russian was topped by second-seed Simona Halep. She went on to the Australian Open third round, where she was defeated by Maria Sakkari. Kudermetova is coming off a disappointing performance in St. Petersburg, where she was knocked out in the first round by Belinda Bencic.

Both players have had a shaky season, thus neither are favourites in this opening round. No one enjoys a head-to-head advantage, which means they’ll be unfamiliar with each other’s games. They are both aggressive players who will be anticipated to bring a great game to this tournament. Despite not being at her finest, Azarenka has an advantage over the 24-year-old due to her experience and the consistency of her game on hard courts.
Prediction: Azarenka to win in two sets.
