The Australian Open continues on Friday with the men’s semi-finals as Novak Djokovic is still on course to win his first major tournament of the tennis season.
The nine-time champion was at his best as he defeated Alex de Minaur and Andrei Rublev in straight sets, but he was drawn into further controversy before his encounter with Tommy Poole after his father was photographed posing with Vladimir Putin supporters in Melbourne.
The women’s final is set with Elena Rybakina aiming for her second Grand Slam title against Aryna Sabalenka, who is in her first Grand Slam final. Rybakina and Sabalenka both won in straight sets on Thursday, setting up a battle between two heavy hitters in the final.
Andy Murray was the story of the first week at Melbourne Park with his epic five-set wins over Mathieu Berrettini and Thanasi Kokkinakis, but the 35-year-old’s memorable career ended with a thrilling four-set loss to Roberto Bautista Agut. Here’s everything you need to know during the Australian Open:
