The Serb’s thigh injury is one of the big topics of conversation at the Australian Open in Melbourne. Before today’s round of 16 (9 a.m./live Servus TV) against the Australian Alex de Minaur, there is speculation as to whether the tournament favorite is actually seriously injured or is possibly acting. “He’s definitely got something,” Boris Becker defended his former protégé.
The top seeded world number one Iga Swiatek has already failed in the round of 16 because of Wimbledon winner Elena Rybakina. The Pole lost to Kazakh yesterday 4:6, 4:6. Rybakina now meets Jelena Ostapenko from Latvia. “I have to work on my attitude,” said Swiatek.
In the men’s game, Canadian Felix Auger-Aliassime, who was number six, had to give up against Czech Jiri Lehecka, while Stefanos Tsitsipas won a five-set thriller against Jannik Sinner.
Austria’s doubles Alexander Erler/Lucas Miedler lost in the second round to the Czech Jiri Lehecka and the Slovakian Alex Molcan 5:7, 5:7.
