Badosa wins the title in Sydney two days before the start of the Australian Open

Just two days before debuting at the Australian Open, Paula Badosa will arrive in Melbourne with the Sydney title won this Saturday against the Czech Barbora Krejcikova (world number 3) for a tight 6-3, 4-6 and 7-6(4).

Champion last year of the Indian Wells Masters 1,000, Badosa has started the 2022 season with another title that gives him confidence ahead of the first Grand Slam of the season in which he fell in the second round last year. In the final against Krejcikova, Badosa

made a physical display to be imposed in 2 hours and 24 minutes on the last Roland Garros champion who reached the final after beating the Estonian Anett Kontaveit by a rush 0-6, 6-4 and 7-6(12) after saving six match points.

Badosa had already beaten Krejcikova last year at the Masters 1,000 from Madrid and Indian Wells. On her way to the Sydney title, the Catalan tennis player had beaten the Russian Daria Kasatkina, the Swiss Belinda Bencic , the Latvian Jelena Ostapenko and the Australian Ajla Tomljanovic, with whom he will face this Monday in his debut at the Australian Open.
