Australian Open 2023 Odds
Contents
Caroline Garcia raised some eyebrows with a flawless performance at the World Tour Finals last year; as she won the title without surrendering a set in the knockout stages. As it stands, Garcia is currently fourth on the WTA Rankings. That said, these are the odds offered on Caroline Garcia to win the Australian Open:
Due to Iga Swiatek’s loss to Rybakina on Sunday, Caroline Garcia is now the second-highest ranked player left in this competition. With that in mind, the French player can be backed at 6/1 to hoist the title. It’s worth noting that Garcia is one of the outright favourites, with just three players being favoured above her. On that note, let’s see how the 29 year old has fared so far in this tournament.
Previous Rounds – Caroline Garcia Australian Open 2023
Caroline Garcia didn’t have too much trouble against Katherine Sebov in the first round; as she defeated the Canadian in straight sets, 6-3, 6-0.
Compared to her first round opponent, the 29 year old had a relatively tougher second round match-up, as she faced former US Open finalist Leylah Annie Fernandez. However, Garcia was still able to dispatch her opponent in two tight sets, 7-6, 7-5.
Next, Caroline Garcia faced a tricky opponent in Laura Siegemund. She was broken twice in the first set, in a disappointing 6-1 loss. Interestingly, Garcia eventually picked up some speed, taking the next two sets.
Upcoming Match vs Linette – Caroline Garcia Australian Open 2023
With her win against Siegemund, Caroline Garcia booked a spot in the Australian Open round of 16, setting up an interesting clash with Magda Linette. She had previously faced Linette in Strasbourg six years ago, winning in straight sets. Bearing that in mind, it’ll be interesting to see if Garcia can reach the quarter-final at the expense of her opponent.
Form Prior to Australian Open 2023
Caroline Garcia played four matches heading into the Australian Open; two at the United Cup, and two at the second Adelaide event. The 29 year old has a 3-1 win-loss record heading into the 2023 Australian Open. Here are the 29 year old’s results before this tournament:
- Garcia vs Bencic – lost 1-2
- Garcia vs Siniakova – won 2-1
- Garcia vs Martic – won 2-0
- Garcia vs Podoroska – won 2-0
Performance At Australian Open in the Past
Caroline Garcia’s best result at the Australian Open was when she reached the fourth round in 2018. The French player crashed out of the first round last year, and exited in the second round in 2020 and 2021. However, Garcia is one of the favourites at this tournament, so she’s expected to match or surpass that fourth round outing.
Australian Open 2023 Prediction – Quarterfinal or Semifinal
It’s important to point out that Caroline Garcia will play in the fourth round of the Australian Open for the second time in her career on Monday; she has never gotten to the quarter-final. However, should she beat Magda Linette like we expect her to, Garcia will face either Shuai Zhang or Karolina Pliskova in the next round.
Potential semi-final opponents are Belinda Bencic, Aryna Sabalenka, Donna Vekic and Linda Fruhvirtova. All in all, we think Garcia’s Australian Open campaign will end in the semi-final.
