The Australian Open is over for the locals. Some Australians impressed and others didn't live up to expectations. Here's how we graded them.
On a mild Sunday evening in Melbourne, world number one Jannik Sinner of Italy claimed the Australian Open’s Norman Brookes Challenge Cup, besting Germany’s Alexander Zverev 6-3, 7-6, 6-3 in the 2025 men’s final.
World number two Alex Zverev credited his brother Mischa for his mastery of left-handers after beating a 26th in succession in Frenchman Ugo Humbert to reach the Australian Open quarter-finals on Sunday.
