Day 14. This used to be the last day of the tournament. Not this year due to the Sunday start. Thank god they did that to prevent all those late finishes..... Weather: 14-23C. Perfect weather. Little bit of wind, but I not sure that is a huge factor on RLA. Rod Laver Arena Night Session From...

Girls night tonight. Weather 17-26C. should be fine. Won't be too hot either. Not really a factor now that all the matches are basically at night/twilight Rod Laver Arena Night Session From 7:30pm Gauff [4] 🇺🇸 vs. /Sabalenka [2] [Q] Yastremska 🇺🇦 vs. [12] Zheng 🇨🇳 ------------- Mens Draw...

Today has gone forever. Long long long first sets in both matches with a TB in the 2nd. Weather 23-29C. Chance of storms. So similar to today. Hot Rod Laver Arena Day Session From 12pm Noskova 🇨🇿 vs. [Q] Yastremska 🇺🇦 [9] Hurkacz 🇵🇱 vs. [3] Medvedev Night Session From 7:15pm Kalinskaya [12]...

I thought Sunday was bad. I think today was even worse. At least Sacha/Norrie and ADM/Rublev gave us some 5 set entertainment. Look dud days are not all bad. IF it ends up with epic games later....We are due a CC classic or 2. Weather- 14-29c. Should test the players and fans but won't be...

Day 8 and I am so happy that Kostyuk is now in the top 30. And she finally won a match under 3 sets. Coco looks very strong and it is shaping up to be a Coco v Sabe semi-final (which in all reality, is the actual final). Mens wise, the Greek God stopped, Mannerio went to the bakery and we are...

Day 7 was a bit flat. Probably one best left behind. So, lets get to day 8. Weather: 17-21 Mainly fine, might be a shower or 2. But showers are no longer a big deal for the singles events, with most of the action on the roofed arenas. Rod Laver Arena Day Session From 12pm Frech 🇵🇱 vs. Gauff...

I am 4 beers into Friday night. Going to be a quick night looking at the scores so far at this; straight sets half of the draw. So many one-sided matches today, including a double bagel... This means we are now back to the stupidly long 3am finishes half. LETS GO!!!!!!!!!! Weather - 14-27C...

I should try and get this done before Day 5 ends up in the morning of day 6. So, day 4 was full of one-sided matches. Today, has seen a lot of matches go the distance. Heck, even Iga has to fight for 3 hours. Indeed, only 1 mans match went to 3 straight sets. I won't count Medvedev, in this, he...

Well, this is an interesting night. Both Poppy and Thomo put up huge fights against last year's finalists. Both had great chances at set point, only lose the set in the resulting TB , Success for Storm Hunter and the full arrival of a 16-year-old on the WTA scene. There were many one-sided...

A brave Aussie in a 5 set match..check. Several players are struggling with the heat...check. There are no huge upsets as of yet but the night is young. This tournament hasn't had any major shocks as of yet, with most things going to script(outside the Ladies Wimbledon Champ). Indeed, as of the...

Day 2. The demon seemed to have lost his match until he made a huge comeback from 1 set down to outlast Raonic. Well, according to the Day 2 thread anyway ;) Some shocking results for the Russian Seeds. Kudermetova, Alexandrova, Samsonova, Potapova are all out, while Rublev was pushed all the...

Day one is done. We had several long Aussie 5-setters, some easy wins for the big favs and a massive scare for Rublev. And a huge crowd, which guarantees that Sunday is here to stay. Weather 17-28C Low chance of some thunder. Rest of week is very similar. RLA Day Session From 12pm Schmieds vs...

Well, the schedule is out on the main courts. I will add to this post later on with everything I normally do. Think we will do daily threads again as it keeps things going for the 2 weeks. And I like daily polls ;) It is a Sunday start. 3 days of round 1 action. Not a fan personally, as there...

Here we are again. Novak and Iga are the world number 1 with Novak having the added benefit of being a defending champ at the Aus Open. But all that is several weeks away. first, we have the warm up tournaments. Great to see the Brisbane International back. Canberra now a 125K womens event and...

Here we are already. The last slam of the year in the big apple. The draws are below. Some tidbits below Men Sinner and Carlos are in the same quarter. Not ideal for either player, especially Carlos. I can see a 5 set epic if they both get that far. Medvedev is in that half and could meet the...

Wanted to post this, as i think this is just fantastic. But wasn't sure of the thread. So, why not create a new one? Here hoping the New Tasmanian AFL club has moments like this in the future. This is what it means to have a local club that gives locals a chance. Love the JJ's. Such a...

Here we are. The final the organisers would have wanted after Nick withdrew. The winner gets the trophy and the girl(ala, the number one ranking). Can Novak equal Nadal or will Stefanos win everything and start building schools all throughout Victoria with his prize money? Novak Djokovic (4) VS...

The last semis. Not much to add here, as the womens semis are being played at the moment. First Match is the Mixed Doubles FInal. Sania Mirza is playing her last match ever with Rohan Bopanna. Something to keep your eye out early in the day 2:30PM [18] Khachanov vs [3] Tsitsipas 5-1 H2H...

We are going to end the quarter-final stage with only one match which didn't finish in straight sets. So the tennis could be better in the last couple of days. We now move into the semis for the girls and hopefully, one of them will go to a 3rd set Weather: 22C. Partly Cloudy Schedule RLA...

It is fair to say that the last few days have been disappointing. A lot of Straight set matches especially on the girls side. Indeed, if you get rid of the 2 matches Azarenka has had on RLA, no match has gone the distance since day 4 on RLA for the ladies. There has been 4 in total on RLA. 2...

Geech, Day 9 already. To think it was only this time last week that Murray v Berrettini played that epic 5-setter. As they say, a week is a long time in sport. Today, we had a dramatic 5-setter, where it seemed neither player wanted to win, and a Novak thrashing on ADM. It is the start of the...

This is later than normal but it was a damn good match. Another long, long 5 set which was damn entertaining. That was the 2nd of the day. We also said goodbye to the world's number 1 in the womens as Rybakina showcased that she deserves way better than court 13. Pegula continued her run and...

The first week is nearly done. The round of 16 is here. Today was fairly quiet. Not much to say really. Murray is gutsy, and Shelton was too good. 12 out of 15 matches have been straight-set wins. It won't be that way tonight. This has been building all week but we are getting some real...

I am really tired. And I didnt even stay up for the Murray match. Swiatek showcased wonderful tennis scoring by only taking 55 mins to get beat her opponent. that is 20% of Murray's match. Honestly, it has felt like everyone is still trying to wake up from Murray this morning. The best match no...

Upset here, Upset there. A lot of big names and top players lost yesterday. Ruud(2), Fritz(8), and Zverev all on 1 afternoon. And as i type this, Novak is 1 set all against a no-name(sorry Enzo). I will write the draws below but, as Nick just mentioned on twitter, one side of the mens resembles...

Farewell Nadal. The defending champ has lost his racquet in what looked like his final game in Melbourne. Probably the biggest story of the week. He and Kasatkina are the significant seeds who lost today(so far). A lot of Tennis is still to be played tonight, as they attempt to catch up. I am...

Melbourne, where play was delayed due to hot weather one hour, and wet weather the next. Still, Sir Andy beating over Matteo in a match that was the best at the tournament so far was a massive highlight in what could end earlier(or very late). Matteo is the biggest seed out on both sides of the...
