If you missed yesterday’s event, let’s take you into our time machine for a quick look back.
The great Australian will be hoping Alex de Minaur can overcome a slow start and rain delay at the Rod Laver Arena to defeat Serbian rival Hamad Medjedovic 6-7 (5-7), 6-2, 6-2, 6-1. He booked a place in the round of 32 for the sixth year in a row.

Demon will face veteran American Frances Tiafoe in her next match. Come on boy, you can do it.
It’s a sad day for Australians outside the Demon (and we’re not talking politics in Canberra). Jordan Thompson, Priscilla Hon, Talia Gibson, Storm Hunter and Ajla Tomljanovic were sent packing.

In the men’s draw, top seeds Carlos Alcaraz (No. 1) and Alexander Zverev (No. 3) advanced to the second round as expected, while three-time Australian Open runner-up Daniil Medvedev (No. 10) regained his former form after a disastrous 2025 season and advanced to the third round.
If Medvedev and Zverev win again, they will meet in the last 16. Yes, tennis gods, make it happen.
Top-seeded Aryna Sabalenka (No. 1) and American Coco Gauff (No. 3) earned second-round wins and remain on course for contention heading into the semifinals. A match we all want to see. They just need to keep winning. No problem, hello Aryna and Coco?
In short, it is the fourth day of the Australian Open. Back to the future and the exciting fifth day is ahead.
