Alex de Minaur advanced to the third round of the Australian Open with a convincing win against American qualifier Tristan Boyer. De Minaur showcased his improved serve and net play, overwhelming Boyer with 24 winners and six aces. Despite facing personal challenges due to the California wildfires, Boyer displayed glimpses of talent but couldn't match de Minaur's dominance.
Alex de Minaur has cruised into the third round of the Australian Open with a comprehensive victory over American qualifier Tristan Boyer on Thursday. The Aussie dropped his opening service game to trail 2-0, but then reeled off the next eight games en route to the dominant 6-2, 6-4, 6-3 victory. Boyer, who was making his grand slam debut at Melbourne Park, showed flashes of his undeniable talent, but didn’t display enough consistency to ultimately challenge de Minaur.
Boyer was competing at Melbourne Park just days after learning his father had been forced to evacuate his home due to the devastating fires in California. De Minaur was quick to pay tribute to his opponent after the match. “My deepest condolences to everyone affected by the fires in California. It is something you never want to see,” he said in his on-court interview. “I am sending lots of love all the way there and hopefully these bad times will pass by sooner rather than later.
