Expect fireworks.

1 seed, Barty has been carrying the weight of a nation on her shoulders. The 25-year-old has major wins at Roland Garros and Wimbledon on her CV, but she has never been able to get the job done in Melbourne. Her run to the semi-finals in 2020 was the closest she has come, but will fancy her chances of getting over that hurdle this time round.

Barty and Keys have met on three occasions, with the Australian emerging victorious twice. They have not played since the French Open in 2019, but on current form the No. 1 seed is the overwhelming favourite.
