2020 Australian Open Women’s Final – Sofia Kenin vs Garbine Muguruza Prediction

While the tennis world was expecting an Ashleigh Barty vs Simona Halep final, these two finalists flipped the script instead.

This is a fantastic opportunity for both to start the year on a high with a Slam title. Sofia Kenin might look like she’s going to be overwhelmed with this occasion but put in mind that she overcame a hometown crowd and a world number one in the semifinals to reach this stage.

Garbine Muguruza, on the other hand, has already experienced being in a Grand Slam final and won’t be as pressured since getting this far alone is already a big achievement for the Spaniard, who has experienced a slump in the past couple of years.
