Barty won 3: 6, 6: 1 and 7: 6 (5) against Collins, who had played extremely convincingly until the semi-finals in Adelaide, after a time of 1:55 hours. In the previous round, the American had only given four games against Sofia Kenin and Belinda Bencic. Barty, on the other hand, who will be number one in the Australian Open, was able to rehabilitate in Adelaide for her opening loss in Brisbane last week against Jennifer Brady.

In the final, the Australian team faces Dayana Yastremska. The Ukrainian had forced Aryna Sabalenka to her knees in the first semi-final with 6: 4 and 7: 6 (4).
