Aus Open: Sinner downs Zverev to retain men’s singles title
After sweeping the Australian Open and US Open in 2024, the Italian also extended his win streak at the hard-court majors to 21 matches.
Indian tennis ace Rohan Bopanna and his Canadian partner Gabriela Dabrowski advanced to the mixed doubles quarter-finals of the Australian Open after beating Poland's Lukasz Kubot and Taiwan's Chan Yung-jan 6-4, 5-7 (10-3) in their second round tie.
The unseeded duo of Bopanna and Dabrowski clinched the first set without much fuss but went down in the second before bouncing back in the third set tie-breaker in a match that lasted one hour and 16 minutes.
