Hailey Baptiste and Kimberly Birrell meet in the second round of the 2025 Singapore Open on Thursday, January 30, 2025. Here's our Hailey Baptiste vs Kimberly Birrell prediction. This preview will also include a Hailey Baptiste vs Kimberly Birrell pick.

 

Hailey Baptiste Preview

Hailey Baptiste recovered from a set deficit to beat Mexico's Renata Zarazua 2-6, 6-0, 6-3 in the opening round of the Singapore Open. The match lasted for close to two hours.

Baptiste hit six aces and one double fault in the match. She landed 64% of her first serves in play and won 67% of first serve points (31/46).

Baptiste won 46% of second serve points (12/26) and saved seven of 10 break points. The American tallied 48% of return points (29/60) and broke Zarazua's serve five times.

Baptiste will be eyeing a second quarterfinal at the Tour level this season after reaching that stage in Auckland in the opening week of 2025. She lost in the first round of the Australian Open to Laura Siegemund. So, she is only 3-2 for the year.

 

Kimberly Birrell Preview

World No. 95 Kimberly Birrell opened her Singapore account with a shock win over Polina Kudermetova. Birrell won 6-3, 6-2 in just 62 minutes of play against one of the WTA's breakout stars of 2025.

Birrell hit five aces and one double fault in the victory. She landed 81% of first serves in play and won 63% of first serve points (24/38).

The Australian won 44% of second serve points (4/9) and saved one of three break points.

Birrell won 56% of return points (35/62) and broke Kudermetova six times from nine opportunities.

This is her seventh win of the new season (including qualifiers) and was a quarterfinalist in Brisbane. She also qualified for the Australian Open, but lost in the first round to Eva Lys.

Hailey Baptiste vs Kimberly Birrell Prediction

The oddsmakers can't seem to separate these two with Baptiste opening as the slight favorite with the markets at -115. Birrell is a -110 underdog for the victory. They also sit just a few spots apart, with Baptiste the higher-ranked player in this matchup at No. 93, while the Aussie is down in 95th spot.

Birrell has had the most impressive start to the season and particularly this week in Singapore. She's earned a top 10 win over Emma Navarro during her run to the Brisbane quarterfinal and beat a former top 30 player in Potapova in the same tournament. She's good enough to play with the house money here after taking out an in-form Polina Kudermetova in straight sets. But I reckon this is more of 50/50 duel and I'm happy to back the overs in the games spread.
