What's going on everybody? Welcome back to another Draw Preview and we are previewing the women's side of the Australian Open. We've done the men's side already. Go check that out. But there are some equally awesome matches in the women's side. Let's go to the withdrawals from the tournament. So the players who have withdrawn from this event, we have Kiki Bertens. She's withdrawn. Also Suarez Navarro. Townsend is also withdrawn. Anissa Mover. Lynette. Madison Keys also withdrew and Yastremska, who is on suspension by the ITF. She had to leave after quarantining for 14 days. She wasn't allowed to play the event. All right. Let's start at the top of the draw. We have the number one seed, Ash Barty versus Covnich in the first round. Winner of that's going to play either Tormo or Gavrilova in the second. Then you've got Zhang versus Krajikova. The winner of that's going to play either Treveson or the number 29 seed, Alexandrova in the second round. Then you've got Kontovit, the number 21 seed versus Sancnovich. Winner of that's going to play either Pliskeva or Watson. Now of course that is the sister of Pliskeva, not the top 10 player Pliskeva. Then you've got Francesca Jones, the qualifier from the UK. Of course you're going to hear a lot of her over the next couple of weeks. She plays Shelby Rogers in the first round. Winner of that's going to play either Danilovic or Martich, the number 16 seed. So Ash Barty got to be pretty happy with that part of the draw. No real threats to making it out of here and into the quarters. Go to the second part of the draw. We have the number 11 seed, Benchich versus Davis in the first round. Winner of that's going to play either Kuznetsova or Strikava in the second round. Then you've got Zhu versus Osweji. The winner of that's going to play either Fernandez or the number 18 seed, Mertens in the second round. Then you've got the number 25 seed, Machova versus Osterpenko. That's a fun first round. Winner of that's going to play either Barthol or Cotcioreto in the second round. Then you've got Collins versus Bogdan. The winner of that's going to play either Polini or the number six seed, Pliskeva. So straight away you can see Pliskeva versus Benchich is possibly a fourth round matchup. And then the winner of that's probably going to take on Ash Barty in the quarters. So we could have a Pliskeva versus Barty. Quarter finals. Next part of the draw, we have Sophia Kennan, the number four seed versus Inglis in the first round. Winner of that's going to play either Sevastova or Kineppi. Then you've got Potoroska versus Mikhail. The winner of that's going to play either Wang or the number 28 seed, Vekic. Then you've got the 22nd seed, Brady versus Bolsova. Winner of that's going to play either Bregel or Roddy and Nova in the second round. Then you've got Pakey versus Sharif. Battle of the qualifiers. Winner of that's going to play either Jovan or the number 13 seed, Conta. So like I said, Sophia Kennan's got to be happy with her part of the draw. Kineppi is a dangerous player. She proved that this week. Vekic is no slouch. But I think Kennan has got to be pretty happy of getting out of this part of the draw. The final part of the top half of the draw, we have the number 12 seed, Azarenka. She versus Pagula in the first round. She'll play the winner of Ava versus Stoza in the second round. So no matter what, if Azarenka wins, she's playing a wild card from Australia. Then you've got Habini versus Sharva. Winner of that's going to play a very interesting first round match, Lejenovic versus the number 20 seed, Sakari in the second round. So that's a very fun first round match. Then you've got Putin seven, the number 26 seed versus Stevens in the first round. Another popcorn first round match. Winner of that's going to play either Van Udvank or Boral in the second round. Another very fun first round match that we actually saw them compete this week. Goff versus Taikman is happening in the first round. Winner of that's going to play either Buskova or the number five seed, Svetalina. So straight away you can see Goff versus Svetalina could be a second round match. A lot of fun that match up. Also, don't forget, Azarenka-Sakari, that is a third round match that could happen. Very fun as well. And also Svetalina versus Sakari or Azarenka could be a fourth round. And the winner of this part of the draw will possibly take on Sofia Kennan so we could get Azarenka versus Kennan in the quarterfinals. The top of the bottom half of the draw now and a name that we haven't seen for a long time. The number 18, Andrescu. She gets a lucky loser in her first match back after almost a year and a half. She'll play the Romanian, was an Escu in the first round. The winner of that match will play the winner of Shway versus Poronkova. So if Andrescu does get through her first match, she might have to play Poronkova in the second. Then you've got Flipkins versus Venus Williams. Winner of that's gonna play either Orani or the number 30 seed Wang. Then you've got the number 19 seed Vondrosova versus Peterson. The winner of that's gonna play either Marino or Burl in the second round. Then you've got Teague versus Castella. The winner of that's gonna play Minin or the number nine seed Caviteva. So straight away you can see Caviteva-Andrescu on a collision course for the fourth round. Grand Slam champions versing each other. That is a lot of fun. But like I said, Andrescu does not have an easy draw. She has to get through Poronkova, who's proven to be a difficult customer. Also, Venus Williams is floating around. Could she play Venus in the third round and then have to play Caviteva? Next part of the draw, we have Mugarooth at the number 14 seed and the finalist of last year, she's got a lucky loser, Gasparin in the first round. Winner of that's gonna play either Samsonova or Bedossa in the second. Then you've got Dias versus Zedinsek. The winner of that's gonna play either Perra or the number 23 seed Kerba in the second round. Then you've got the number 27 seed Jabor versus Petkovich, which is a fun first round. Winner of that's gonna play either Hibi or Schmidlova in the second. Then you've got Herkog versus Garcia. Winner of that's gonna play either Pavlechenkova or the number three seed Naomi Osaka. So again, you can see straight away, Mugarooth or Osaka, fourth round, potential meeting. Don't count it, Jabor. Don't count out Kerba. We know that they can play some good tennis as well. And Pavlechenkova for Osaka is not an easy first round and potentially Garcia in the second. The winner of this part of the draw plays the winner of the top part, which is either Kovitova, Andrescu, if you go by the seedings, that could be a quarter-finals. So we could get Andrescu versus Osaka in the quarter-finals, which I think would be insane. All right, the next part of the draw, the number seven seed Sabalenka versus Kuzmova in the first round. Winner of that's gonna play either Bolta or Kazakina in the second round. Then you've got Kornay versus Sevinjek in the first round. Winner of that's gonna play either Li or the number 31 seed Zhang in the second round. Then you've got the 24th seed Risk versus Potapova. Winner of that's gonna play either Babosh or Bonaventure in the second round. Then you've got Stodgianovich versus Bagu. Winner of that's gonna play either Sigemund or the number 10 seed Serena William. So straight away again, you can see that Serena versus Sabalenka could be a fourth round. And the last part of the draw, which is probably the toughest part of the draw, we have the number 15 seed Sveontek versus Rus in the first round. Winner of that's gonna play either Svedova or Georgie in the second. Then you've got Ferro versus Sinyakova. Winner of that's gonna play either Svonoreva or the number 17 Rybakina. So I think that is a first round blockbuster. Svonoreva, former finalist of Slam. Back in the day, versing the next generation of player. Then you've got the 32nd seed Kudamatova versus Kostjak. Winner of that's gonna play either Cheva or Blinkova in the second round. Then you've got Dui versus Tomnianovich. And the winner of that's gonna play either Cabrera or the number two seed Samona Hallab, who I think has the toughest draw out of anybody. She's sort of like Novak Djokovic of the women's side of the draw because it is gonna be tough. She has to get through not only her part of the draw, which is full of very scary unseeded players. She might have to play against her French open Nemesis. Sviontek in the fourth round and not to mention, if she does get through this part of the draw and make the quarterfinals, she will have to take on either Sabalenka or Serena Williams. And then if she gets through that, she's gonna have to play a semi-final against Andrescu or Osaka. And that's just to make the final. So I think Hallab has the hardest draw. So there it is, the 2021 Australian Open draw for the women. And like I said, very exciting bottom half of the draw. Top half of the draw is actually pretty bare. I think there's only a couple of players that will make the semis statistically. I think Bardi, Azarenka, Kennen, they're the most likely. But then down the bottom, I mean Flippercoin, there are so many Grand Slam champions down the bottom half of the draw. So predictions. I picked Nomura-Saka at the end of last year and I'm gonna stick with her for this year. So I think Nomura-Saka is gonna win. But again, like I said, she's in the hardest part of the draw. So potentially Osaka has to go through Mugaru through in the fourth round. On Drescu in the quarterfinals and then either Hallab or Serena Williams in the semis and maybe Bardi in the finals. So if she does win it, it'll be a very, very impressive performance. But I'm gonna stick with Osaka because I picked her at the end of last year. So again, let me know down in the comments below who do you see winning this one? A lot of killers in this one. WTA throws up random champions this time last year. Sophia Kennen was the champ. Who to pick that? So Australian Open draw is done for 2021 and we are watching the matches on Monday. See you there.
