Australian Open 2025: De Minaur and Boulter in action, Raducanu battles through – live

Paolini is so much fun to watch and she earns two break points immediately, and when Wei nets a forehand she leads 1-0. Some latest scores:. Musetti (16) is up 1-0 5-4 against Arnaldi. Shelton (21) leads Nakashima 7-6 7-5 4-3. Bautista Agut and Shapovalov are warming up.

Sonego and Wawrinka are 1-1 4-4. Etcheverry and Cobolli (32) are playing a first set tiebreak. So, which matches to watch? I’m going to go with Van de Zandschulp v De Minaur, Popyrin v Moutet, Arnaldo v Musetti and Wei v Paolini, I think – provided the various systems permit that.
Let’s begin with a result: Daniil Medvedev, seeded five, has survived a scare, beating Thailand’s Kasidit Samrej, a qualifier, 6-2 4-6 3-6 6-1 6-2. He meets Learner Tien of USA next. G’day all and welcome to the Australian Open 2024 – day three!.
As ever we’ve all sorts for you in this evening session. Local favourites Alex de Minaur and Alexei Popyrin both begin their campaigns, against the big-serving Botic van de Zandschulp and mercurial Corentin Moutet respectively, while Jasmine Paolini and Andrey Rublev also play.
And there’s more, so much more. Ben Shelton and Brandon Nakashima are mid-match, likewise Matteo Arnaldi and Lorenzo Musetti, with Ons Jabeur and Katie Boulter taking to the court when they’re finished; Roberto Bautista Agut meets Denis Shapovalov; Lorenzo Sonego and Stan Wawrinka are already under way; and so are Tomas Etcheverry and Flavio Cobolli.
