Australian Open 2020: My Picks for the Women's Singles Title - Kiki Bertens


Kiki Bertens emerges as the player most likely to get the semifinal slot on her side of the draw, here in the Australian Open.  She is in a pretty crowded draw but apparently, she has the best H2H record among the group.

This includes Karolina Pliskova of the Czech Republic, former champion here Angelique Kerber, and Elina Svitolina of Ukraine - all pretty big names in women's tennis nowadays.

However, she has a winning h2h over Elina Svitolina, a prospective opponent in the 4th round, as well as with Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova of Russia, her prospective opponent in the QFs.

On paper, Kiki can be a dangerous player to deal with and she has shown that by reaching both a quarterfinal and semifinal in a grand slam.

With these statistics, she should be able to also do just that this AO.
