Third seed Cori Gauff and 19th seed Karolina Muchova and Gauff rekindle their rivalry this week at the Australian Open. The two will face off for the fifth time in their careers, squaring off in the fourth round. Read on for our prediction of this match.
Cori Gauff has made it to the second week of competition for the fourth consecutive time in Melbourne. The American, who recorded a semi-final finish in 2024, her best result at this major, lost in the quarter-finals last term.
To advance to this round, Gauff fought from a set down against compatriot Hailey Baptiste to win in three sets. It was the first time she had surrendered a set this week.
The 21-year-old, who is unbeaten against Muchova, has dropped one spot to fourth in the live ranking.
Karolina Muchova is having her best run in Melbourne in five years. The world number 19 recorded a semi-final finish here in 2021, but in the two appearances since then, she was eliminated in the second round.
Muchova had also failed to appear in the 2022 and 2024 editions. To advance to week two, the 29-year-old had a dominant showing against Magda Linette.
Claiming her second 2-0 victory of the week to improve to 6-1 in 2026, Muchova allowed Linette just two games as she won in just over an hour.
