Vika gets a straight forward draw finally. She should at least be able to reach R16 and meet Garbine (and possibly win that too). And if she does, she gets Kerber, another winnable match.
I predict vika to reach SF or better at this AO.

Vika will not win AO16...just a hunch...a Brisbane winner never wins AO...she has peaked already.
I am picking Rena to defend...she will start slowly and pick up steam in the second week.

Yes my friend you are very deserving..I jump on that Vika bandwagon head first two weeks ago and you warned me. Also you stated Sloane wasn't going to stick around long either after I champion her new coach K M. I will stick with football and basketball for now. laydownlaughing
