Follow live updates from day two of the Australian Open, featuring matches from Coco Gauff, Jannik Sinner, Novak Djokovic, Ajla Tomljanovic and more.
Wildcards Ajla Tomljanović and Talia Gibson have kicked off day two of the Australian Open in style for the 12 locals in action, while Greek star Stefanos Tsitsipas falls in the first round for the second straight slam. Meanwhile, defending champion Jannik Sinner and former winners Novak Djokovic and Naomi Osaka hit Rod Laver Arena. \The second seed is playing her first major since a one-month doping suspension late last year.
Certainly her goal this tournament would be to disrupt Aryna Sabalenka's supremacy on this surface and win her first slam outside of Roland-Garros since 2024. She suffered a surprise third-round exit at Melbourne Park last year, ousted by young Czech talent Linda Noskova. \Also, just to keep you up to date, we also have fellow Aussie James Mccabe playing Martin Landaluce on Court 6. It's currently on serve, 3-3. 31-year-old Australian Ajla Tomljanović defeated world number 51 Ashlyn Krueger in three sets 6-4, 4-6, 6-4. It was the second time they've played this week after they met at the Adelaide Oval - except that time the American won. 'I thought I played against a really tricky player and having lost to her last week it felt really sweet to come out and play her again and win,' Tomljanović said post-win. \She said she thought she wasn't aggressive enough earlier in the match but went into the deciding set bullish on needing to be more assertive on the court and try and dictate points.'This is probably the place I get the most excited and the most nervous so to come and get the win, really no better feeling,' she said. \Jarry, who is ranked 34th in the world, reached a career-high position of 16th in May last year. Sinner had a breakthrough year in 2024, winning two grand slam titles. Unlike the Italian, Jarry had a lukewarm 2024 season, ending it with a 21-24 win/loss record. He exited all four grand slams in the first round. This match promises to be a heavy-hitting duel from the baseline, with Sinner and Jarry in a tug-of-war for court position. \Neither player looked confident in the final set as Tomljanovic, even up by 4-0 at one stage, looked unsteady in being able to close out the match. Krueger came fighting back to win four games but Tomljanovic was able to serve out the match, with relief and joy washing over her face after claiming the final and all-important point. \Over on Court 5, we've had a big upset with another seeded player in the tournament exiting after a first round loss. Tabilo was able to take the fourth set to a tiebreak, grasping at hope for pushing it to a fifth deciding set, but ultimately fell short 6-1, 2-6, 3-6, 6-7 (1-7) to Spaniardis the first seeded player to be knocked out of this year's Australian Open, losing a four-set classic toIt's the second straight first-round exit at a grand slam for Tsitsipas, the 11th seed in Melbourne, after going down to Thanasi Kokkinakis in last year's US Open.'I knew it was going to be a battle. It was all about the mindset,' Michelsen says in his on-court interview. Michelsen reached the third round here as a 19-year-old last year and it remains his best showing at a major. \The 2020 Australian Open champion moved across the court like an energiser bunny when she claimed her maiden grand slam title. It’s been the high point of her career so far — but since then she has struggled to find form and battled with injuries., vocalising animatedly after failing to reach a drop shot mid-way through the second set.is in unbelievable form heading into this Australian Open, coming off a victory for the USA at the United Cup and winning last year’s WTA Finals. \The Greek fans in John Cain Arena are cheering 'TSITSIPAS! TSITSIPAS! TSITSIPAS!' but 20-year-old Alex Michelsen will not go away. The American has pulled out some stunning shots, particularly a pair of backhands down the line, to dig himself out of trouble and break for 4-3 in the fourth set. \But Tsitsipas steps it up and breaks straight back. That's now three breaks in a row for this pair.Tsitsipas is having his moments where it looks like he might lose it and things may unravel quickly, but he keeps pulling it back in time.The Aussie came back to take the first game after being down 40-15 and then backed it up by claiming the second, and the third.
