Twenty-eight-year-old Krejčíková equaled last year’s maximum by advancing to the quarterfinals. She made it to the top eight players following winning over sixteen-year-old Russian Mirra Andrejeva. In Melbourne, she was able to turn around three of the four games.
She has a negative record of 1:5 with Sabalenko, who is three years younger, and has also lost her last three matches. Last year, however, she defeated the tournament’s number two in the quarterfinals of the tournament in Dubai.
After the elimination of Poland’s Iga Šwiateková, Sabalenková is the highest seeded player in the tournament. She has not yet lost a set on the hard courts in Melbourne, losing only 11 games. The last time she beat the American Amanda Anisimovová, she eliminated Brenda Fruhvirtová in the 2nd round.
