This Australian Open (W) clash is set to be played at Melbourne Park in Melbourne, Australia, with matches typically allocated to one of the outdoor hard courts such as the show courts (Rod Laver Arena, Margaret Court Arena, John Cain Arena) or adjacent outside courts, all featuring Plexicushion-style hard surfaces, large seating capacities ranging from a few thousand to over 14,000, and modern lighting suitable for day and night sessions.

There is no widely recorded official WTA head-to-head between Tereza Mrdeza and Teodora Kostovic at main-tour or Grand Slam level in the month leading into this Australian Open (W) match, so this contest effectively serves as their first notable meeting on the professional stage, making current form and surface preference more important than historical matchup data.
