Wildcard Joint books clash with former world No. 1

Wildcard Joint books clash with former world No. 1

 


Teenage wildcard Maya Joint has set up a showdown with former world number 1 Victoria Azarenka in her Brisbane International debut after winning an all-Australian stoush against Maddison Inglis on Sunday.

In only her fourth match at WTA level, the 18-year-old played with the fearlessness of youth as she jumped to 5-0 early and maintained her lead through a more evenly contested second set for a 6-3 6-4 win at 154e-ranked Inglis at Pat Rafter Arena.

I train here, so it's super special to be able to play a match in front of this great crowd, said Joint. It's very important to start the season well and I can't think of a better place to do that than here.

I'm super excited to play a lot of first main draws here, the first main draw at the Australian Open.

Australia's fastest rising player over the past year, Joint climbed a whopping 655 places to finish in the top 120 after a season that included two ITF titles, a WTA 125 final and a win over Laura Siegemund to reach second round at the US Open. .

The teenager vowed to learn from a defeat to world number 21 Madison Keys at Flushing Meadows in her next match against two-time former champion Azarenka.

I'm very excited to play her. Yes, I will think back to my Madison Keys match. That was a great experience. “I hope I can play well again,” Joint said.

There were a lot of things I saw that I needed to improve in my own game to be competitive with those types of players. I'm happy that I have a good victory to my name. I gain confidence from that. She hasn't played a match yet this week, so we'll see how it goes.

In the final round of men's singles qualifying, German Yannik Hanfmann and 19-year-old American Nishesh Basavareddy ended the hopes of two former French top-10 players to book their places in the main draw.

Hanfmann stopped Gasquets' last outing in Brisbane 7-6(4) 6-3, while Basavareddy recorded a 6-4 6-4 result over Lucas Pouille.

A third Frenchman, Benjamin Bonzi, had better luck after Bulgarian Adrian Andreev retired injured in the fifth match, while two Australians, Tristan Schoolkate and Li Tu, fell short against Kazakhstan's Mikhail Kukushkin and Japan's Yoshihito Nishioka respectively. Argentinian Federico Agustin Gomez advanced against third seed Dusan Lajovic 6-1 7-6(4).
