AusOpen 2010

 

Defending champion Victoria Azarenka, 4/6 with bet365 to be crowned champion, is excited by the opportunity of defending her Australian Open title.

 

Azarenka will take on China's Li Na in Melbourne on Saturday, having seen the likes of Serena Williams and Maria Sharapova fail to reach the final. "I'm really happy to defend my title, that's my goal. Actually, not to defend, to win the tournament," Azarenka commented. "I've put myself into a position to give it the best shot there is. I'm really looking forward to it." Azarenka holds a narrow 5-4 advantage over Li Na in their previous nine matches, with the Chinese having won their previous two meetings at Grand Slams. Na won 6-3 6-3 in the fourth round of the 2011 Australian Open, going on to lose to Kim Clijsters in the final, while she also saw off Azarenka 7-5 6-2 in the quarter-finals of the French Open in the same year, going on to clinch her only Grand Slam title to date.
