Britain's Katie Boulter attempts to reach the Australian Open third round for the first time. The 22nd seed faces unseeded Veronika Kudermetova in round two of this outdoor hard court Grand Slam. Here's our match prediction.
Boulter has only reached the third round of a Grand Slam on three previous occasions, the last time at Wimbledon in 2023. The 28-year-old is up to a career-high equalling 23rd in the rankings after her first round win.
That saw her beat Rebecca Marino in three sets after losing the first. Three of her four matches this year have been won, the other being a three-set defeat to world number two Iga Swiatek.
Veronika Kudermetova has risen to 64th in the live rankings after her first round win. The 27-year-old beat Olivia Gadecki in straight sets, winning both sets 6-1. A win over Boulter will take her into round three of this tournament for the third time and the first since 2022.
Before this Australian Open, the Russian lost in her first match in Brisbane but then got to the last eight in Hobart. It's an improvement on the way 2024 ended for her with three consecutive straight sets defeats.
We tip Katie Boulter to win this match.
