It's time for a duel between the biggest sensations of the previous edition of the Australian Open. We are talking about Magda Linet, who reached the semi-finals of the event last year. Now the Pole is defending important rating points. He will face Caroline Wozniacki in the first match in Melbourne. Live coverage and live report on Polsatsport.pl.
Magda Lynette's start to last season was close to perfect. The Pole was in excellent form at the Australian Open and swept away subsequent opponents. The 24-year-old eventually made it to the semifinals of the event, where she lost to eventual winner Arina Sabalenka.
1. Schwichtek met his rival. Is there anything to fear?
Such a good result meant that Poznań had to defend the rating points obtained last year. He currently has 1,986 points, and his participation in the semi-finals in Melbourne is almost half of that pool. Falling out in the early stages of this year's event means a significant drop in the WTA rankings for the Pole.
Fate did not like Poznań, who will face Caroline Wozniacki in the first round. The former leader of the WTA ranking knows the taste of triumph at the Australian Open. She won the title in 2018, but currently the Polish-born Dungeon is trying to regain her form after her maternity leave. Will Polus rise to the challenge and prove that last year's semi-final was no fluke?
