Predicted Winners in BOLD

Rod Laver Arena 

[6] Karolina Pliskova (CZE) vs. Danielle Collins (USA) – These fast courts may give Pliskova her best shot at a major title since her near miss at the 2016 US Open.
[1] Ashleigh Barty (AUS) vs. [WC] Daria Gavrilova (AUS) – Aussie clash goes to the #1 seed
[5] Elina Svitolina (UKR) vs. Coco Gauff (USA) – An upset? Not sure

Margaret Court Arena

[11] Belinda Bencic (SUI) vs. Svetlana Kuznetsova (RUS) – Good on Kuzy for still battling, but I think Bencic wins.
[4] Sofia Kenin (USA) vs. Kaia Kanepi (EST) – This will be tricky for Kenin.
Jessica Pegula (USA) vs. [WC] Samantha Stosur (AUS) – One more round, for Sam? Probably not

John Cain Arena (Noon start)

[21] Anett Kontaveit (EST) vs. Heather Watson (GBR) – The courts play a factor here

[18] Elise Mertens (BEL) vs. Zhu Lin (CHN)
[22] Jennifer Brady (USA) vs. Madison Brengle (USA)
