34 Wu has now made it further in the Australian Open since she was knocked out in the third round in 2024. Spain’s Carlos Alcaraz returns to Tommy Paul of the US during their men’s singles match at the Australian Open in Melbourne yesterday. On Saturday, Lin Yu-chen, 16, defeated American Carrie-Anne Hoo 7-6, 7-6 (12/10) in their junior girls’ singles opener. Alcaraz, who is yet to drop a set at this year’s tournament, has never gone beyond the quarter-finals in Melbourne. If he can finally break his Australian duck he would become the youngest man in history to win a career Grand Slam of all four majors.
