Daria Kasatkina is primed to return from a mental health break and make her first Australian Open as a local a winner, according to veterans Storm Hunter and Daria Saville.
Russian-born Kasatkina switched allegiances to Australia in March, less than two months after reaching the fourth round at Melbourne Park for the first time.
After declaring for Australia, the former world No.8 reached the fourth round at Roland Garros and the third round of Wimbledon and the US Open.
