The 2022 Australian Open is about to kick off, and the absence of two legendary superstars, Federer and Serena Williams, has made the first Grand Slam event at the beginning of the year unable to be completed. At the same time, the men's singles defending champion Djokovic, due to vaccinations, visa entry and other issues, also directly said goodbye to the Australian Open. Without the presence of a few big tennis bigwigs, Melbourne in 2022 looks a bit star-studded. Some fans joked, "No one expected that this year's Australian Open, Nadal became the last facade of the legendary generation." For this year's Australian Open, many industry insiders and fans have begun to predict the attribution of men's and women's singles champions.
After Djokovic's absence, the competition for the men's singles title at this Australian Open suddenly changed. Last runner-up Medvedev, year-end finals champion Zverev, former tournament champion Nadal and Greek brother Tsitsipas all saw the chance to win the title. Of those players, other than Nadal, no one else has ever lifted a championship trophy at Rodrawall Stadium. This time, who can do it? Local Melbourne fans launched a vote on the attribution of the 2022 Australian Open men's and women's singles titles. In the men's singles, Medvedev received the highest number of votes, and almost everyone thought that the Russian brother would win a second Grand Slam.
After the draw was drawn, Medvedev drew the upper draw, and looking at the lower half of his area, except for Tsitsipas, no one else had the ability to wrench his wrist. As long as you play to your level, tickets to the final can be booked in advance. In second place is Zverev, who won the year-end finals last season, giving the German cannon full of confidence. But in the Australian Open's five-set best-of-three game game, mental instability has been a problem that has plagued him for years. Nadal followed, and after the Big Three withdrew, Rafa became the last line of defense.
If he can't win the championship in this competition, the world men's tennis world has really reached the point of changing dynasties. The scramble for the women's singles title was confusing, with top seed Barty having high hopes from Australian fans, but unfortunately, she and defending champion Naomi Osaka fell into a zone and a half. To pick up the first Daphne Cup locally, Barty needs to shed a layer of skin. No. 2 seed Sabalenka finished second in the women's singles championship vote. But somehow, every Time the Grand Sabalenka has a strong strength, but in the end can not get good results. This time at the Australian Open, will she still miss this opportunity?
Muguruza, who won last season's year-end championship, is in third place, and although the Spanish star has passed its peak, in front of a crowd of small flowers, her Grand Slam champion status makes her feel confident. French Open women's singles champions Krejickova and Svatek are also considered favourites to win the title. Defending champion Naomi Osaka's comeback this time, presumably for the women's singles champion. The Japanese sister, who is not good at clay and grass, will definitely not miss the opportunity to win back the Grand Slam title on the hard court. Who do you think the 2022 Australian Open men's and women's singles champions will be? Leave your answers!
