Biggest machine in the women's draw has to be Angelique Kerber but FMD she got eliminated :unamused:

It's all on Barty now.

It looks like Federer vs Novak next round after their games today. I think the winner of that (most likely Novak) takes out the title. Can't see Nadal going all the way even though he is world #1.

On the other side... Barty. I can't see her beating Petra tonight. Big game for her.
She did mate, Barty did it pretty easily.

Yup all done, was on at 2:30pm, Petra wasn’t in it mentally this arvo.!!!

Sandgren had a chance to beat Federer a wounded animal, hours ago as roger had back problems an couldn’t move around the court, had to go off, but the top class player hung in an will probably win this still. Shows class compared to an up an Coming 100th rated, awesome to watch.

Result is decided unlike after 5 days and you get a draw.

I'd like to see Nadal or Joker save 7 match points when they are Federer's age. He surely is the GOAT.

Here is a fact, every time the joker wins a quarter final down under he has gone on to win the Australian open. And as for Fed saving 7 match points, it was more of a case of Sandgren choking and Fed being lucky. The 100 seed Sandgren has never gone past the quarter finals and lacked the experience to close out such a match.
