Novak Djokovic and Aryna Sabalenka hardly hung up their racquets after the 2022 season ended, and played straight through to Grand Slam victories in Melbourne.

The reigning Wimbledon champion hit through Swiatek’s typically impenetrable ground game to snap her 10-match Grand Slam winning streak and reach her first quarterfinals in Melbourne.

Tsitsipas has dominated his head-to-head series with Sinner, but we like the Italian to stay competitive in Melbourne.

They both tend to shy away from the spotlight despite winning regularly, and they both compete in pressure-filled individual sports.

The three-time Grand Slam champion has now reached the second week at nine of the last 10 majors.

Swiatek revealed a change of pace after sticking with the same songs for over two years; check out the rock stars pumping up the world No. 1 these days.

The world No. 1 surged into the third round after an entertaining contest under the Rod Laver Arena roof that never appeared out of her hands.

Rafael Nadal, the defending men's champion, also plays Mackenzie McDonald, while the top-seeded woman, Iga Swiatek, continues her title bid with a match against Camila Osorio.

Over the course of two hours, the 21-year-old edged through a tight first set and recovered from an early break deficit in the second set to close out the 6-4, 7-5 victory on Rod Laver Arena.

The game's top players met the media on Saturday at Melbourne Park.
