–

Maria Sakkari, after losing in the qualifying, did end up squeezing into the main draw. And then she posted an impressive straights-sets win over Linda Noskova.

But when you look at some of the opening matches and the high cutoff, you can see she has a tough road – again.

Ons Jabeur and Danielle Collins met, and Jabeur, who played and won a few matches in Brisbane, beat a player who sat on the bench for 10 days at United Cup.

In Hobart, the top seed is Dayana Yastremska, with No. 2 Elise Mertens making her 2025 debut after witdrawing in Auckland. Both were winners.
