Rafael Nadal’s Argentina Open title defense did not get off to a convincing start on Thursday night. But it started nonetheless.
Rafa will defend his Argentina Open title in Buenos Aires next week after taking a wild card into the ATP World Tour 250 clay-court tournament.
It’s become a habit of sorts. For the sixth time in seven years, Andy Murray is headed into the semi-finals of the Australian Open. The No. 2-seeded Scotsman once again ensured his place among the final four in Melbourne with a 6-3, 6-7(5), 6-2, 6-3 defeat of No. 8 seed David Ferrer of Spain.
Talk of the day – the Tennis Anti-Corruption programme came in for another hit today, prompting a press conferernce about an Independent Review headed by leading sports barrister Adam Lewis QC.
The top three players in the world will be a part of the Australian Open semifinals after Andy Murray held off David Ferrer 6-3, 6-7(5), 6-2, 6-3 on Wednesday afternoon.
The Australian Open quarterfinals will conclude on Wednesday, when Andy Murray faces David Ferrer and Milos Raonic goes up against Gael Monfils.
Andy Murray has been a model of consistency at the Australian Open, reaching the quarter-finals for the seventh consecutive time after dominating Aussie Bernard Tomic 6-4, 6-4, 7-6(4).
Milos Raonic became the first player since 2012, other than Djokovic, to beat Stan Wawrinka at the Australian Open when the Canadian prevailed 6-4, 6-3, 5-7, 4-6, 6-3 during fourth-round action on Monday afternoon.
Rafael Nadal has long since vacated the bottom half of the Australian Open draw, but it remains loaded with plenty of talent. Andy Murray. Stan Wawrinka. David Ferrer. John Isner. Milos Raonic. Bernard Tomic. Gael Monfils. And then there's...Andrey Kuznetsov?
Isner — all six feet, 10 inches of him — has long been known for his imposing on-court presence, his booming serve making him one of the hardest to break on the ATP World Tour. As Roger Federer once noted, “John can hold easy, that we know.”
Third-round action at the Australian Open will wrap up on Saturday. Only two Americans are still alive and they have tough tests against Spaniards on their hands.

The scene was (once more) set to bid a country’s hero goodbye. The cheering squad were there, enthusiastic as always, our hero swathed within the colours of the national flag...
The curtain came down on Lleyton Hewitt’s illustrious career on Thursday night in Melbourne as David Ferrer defeated the former World No.1, 6-2, 6-4, 6-4 in the second round of the Australian Open.
