Aus Open Day 5 - What led to Osaka aggro?

Aus Open Day 5 - What led to Osaka aggro?

Catherine, David and Matt are together to look back on Stan Wawrinka’s epic victory and a day with some aggro as well as the first big upset in the women’s draw.


Part one - Men’s results. We discuss Wawrinka stealing the show by winning a fifth set tiebreak against Arthur Gea, another comfortable day for Novak Djokovic, a somewhat surprising loss for Hubert Hurkacz, a sad Stefanos Tsitsipas scene, and an intriguing clash between Ben Shelton and Valentin Vacherot to come.


Part two (34:23) - Women’s results. We cover the aggro between Naomi Osaka and Sorana Cirstea and all the fallout in the press conferences, an astonishing performance from 19-year-old Czech Nikola Bartunkova to beat Belinda Bencic, and the smooth progress of the rest of the top seeds.


Part three (54:04) - How Maddison Inglis withstood the Laura Siegemund show to win Sensation of the Day.
