Nothing to get excited about here. Norrie lost 6-2 6-3.0 -
Perhaps the most notable thing about the match was Norrie getting so angry he launched his racket into the crowd and it struck a spectator.
Stunned that he wasn’t disqualified and got away with just a warning.0 -

Maybe if it hadn't been match point then he would have been DQ, but yes it does seem every strange, bearing in mind previous incidents.Callumcafc said:Perhaps the most notable thing about the match was Norrie getting so angry he launched his racket into the crowd and it struck a spectator.

Cam Norrie’s conqueror Facundo Diaz has just beaten compatriot and world number 14 Sebastian Baez 6-4 7-60

Harriet Dart and Billy Harris through to the final qualifying round for the Australian Open.2

Initial draw has been made for Aus Open
Draper (15th seed) v Navone, Norrie v Berrettini, Fearnley v Kyrgios.
Draper has both Alcaraz and Djokovic in his quarter of the draw so a very tough path ahead to make it into the later rounds.
Boulter (22nd seed) v Marino, Raducanu v Alexandrova (26th seed), Burrage v Qualifier, Kartal v Bouzas Maneiro1 -
Billy Harris lost the first set against Kamil Majchrzak. Unfortunately Harriet Dart was defeated by Nao Hibino in straight sets.0

Fearnley has got lucky with his first round draw at the Aussie Open - up against Kyrgios. Seems unlikely Kyrgios will be fully fit.
Norrie faces Berrettini and Draper plays Navone. Should be an easy enough game for Draper.0 -
Sonay Kartal beaten in straight sets in Round 1. Jodie Burrage through to Round 2 in straight sets.
Jack Draper scheduled on court in around two hours from now.2 - Sponsored links:

A bit concerning to see Draper taken to 5 but I see his opponent is ranked 47fenaddick said:Draper won 4-6 6-3 3-6 6-3 6-2 after four hours. Fearnley is 2 sets (7-6, 6-3) up against Kyrgios who has had the trainer on0 -

Aus crowd now acting like complete idiots and cheering like Kyrgios has won the whole championship whenever Fearnley misses his first servefenaddick said:Draper won 4-6 6-3 3-6 6-3 6-2 after four hours. Fearnley is 2 sets (7-6, 6-3) up against Kyrgios who has had the trainer on4 -
Fearnley wins the tie break 7-2 to win 7-6 6-3 7-6 against a very hostile crowd, impressive performance3

Dart was a lucky loser and made the main draw after another player withdrew. She won her first round game in 3 long sets.Callumcafc said:Billy Harris lost the first set against Kamil Majchrzak. Unfortunately Harriet Dart was defeated by Nao Hibino in straight sets.3 -
I can't abide Kyrgios1

Jodie Burrage also won - 4 out 4 Brit wins on day 20

I watched the first two sets. I had hoped he’d win it in four. He clearly took time to get up to speed after not seeing competitive action since October.PrincessFiona said:

Definitely tempered my expectations for the rest of the tournament. They weren’t that high to begin with because he’s got a very difficult draw.1 - Sponsored links:

4/5 - Kartal was defeated right at the beginning of the day.redlanered said:Jodie Burrage also won - 4 out 4 Brit wins on day 20 -

So it seems, but I really thought he was excellent - came across as intelligent, insightful, humorous and very surprisingly astonishingly self-effacingfenaddick said:

Thought he would beat Navone with ease - Navone has been in poor form. I wonder if Draper is fully fit.Callumcafc said:

Her loss was on day 1 I think, but it's splitting hairs, she lost either way. 4/5 still a decent start, hopefully Norrie and Boulter can add to thisCallumcafc said:

Draper has a history of being a tennis equivalent to Chuks so who knows?hoof_it_up_to_benty said:
