AO Tennis
Grand Slam #1
The Australian Open is a tennis tournament held annually at Melbourne Park in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The tournament is the first of the four Grand Slam tennis events held each year, preceding the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open.
We will post daily picks through out the tournament, so be sure to check back daily.
Day 10 Picks: – Women
Karolina Pliskova, ML @4/7 vs Magda Linette
Former World No.1 Karolína Plíšková will take on Magda Linette for a place in the semi-finals. Pliskova, the 30th seed at this year’s tournament, came into the Slam with a poor record to show for the last 12 months. Plíšková has been in stupendous form. She is yet to drop a set in the tournament and has dropped only 18 games across her four matches so far.
Aryna Sabalenka, 2-0 @4/5 vs Donna Vekic
Fifth seed Aryna Sabalenka will meet Donna Vekic in the 2nd quarterfinal in Melbourne on Wednesday. Sabalenka came in as one of the favorites for the title after claiming her 11th career title at the Adelaide International. With most of the top seeds facing early exits, the Belarusian has now booked her place in the quarterfinals of the Australian Open for the very first time. Vekic is also in the QF’s of the Australian Open for the first time but we think her journey ends here.
Men’s Picks:
Tommy Paul ML @4/11 vs Ben Shelton
Tommy Paul and Ben Shelton, two first-time Grand Slam quarterfinalists, will square off against each other at Rod Laver Arena for a spot in the semifinals of the 2023 Australian Open.
25-year-old Tommy Paul, the more experienced of the two Americans, comes into the contest having scored a couple of upset wins over seeded opponents Alejandro Davidovich Fokina and Roberto Bautista Agut in the second and fourth rounds respectively. Paul will be feeling confident about his prospects heading into Wednesday.
Novak Djokovic, vs Andrey Rublev – Over 35.5 games @10/11
Fourth seed Novak Djokovic will take on fifth-seeded Andrey Rublev in the quarter-finals on Wednesday. The Serbian entered the 2023 Australian Open on the back of title-winning runs at the Tel Aviv Open, the Astana Open, the Nitto ATP Finals, and most recently the Adelaide International 1. He scored a dominant win over 23-year-old Alex de Minaur in two hours and six minutes in straight sets of 6-2, 6-1, 6-2 en route to the quarterfinals.
Andrey Rublev, on the other hand, looked completely out of form before entering the Australian Open with early exits at the Rolex Paris Masters, Adelaide International 1, and Adelaide International 2. However, Rublev played exceptionally well and defeated the likes of Dominic Thiem, Emil Ruusuvuori, Daniel Evans, and Holger Rune en route to the quarterfinals.
