Frances Tiafoe roared loudly today in Melbourne after defeating Arthur Rinderknech in the fifth set, securing his spot in the second round of the 2025 Australian Open: "It's been crazy. Honestly, when I vomited, I felt like I might be out in five minutes. I wasn't really panicking at that moment. I lose the fourth, and I had doubts if I would have enough energy. If it were any other tournament, I probably would have retired, but here, you have to lay it all on the line."
I was probably too hydrated, after mixing in a lot of electrolytes. It's 11:00. It's a tough moment. We played for four hours, playing at 11:00 a best of five... I wasn't too happy about that. We ate at 10:00. I vomited all the electrolytes and water. The issue wasn't the food. Actually, it wasn't the heat either. The heat is a bit different here from what everyone's used to. It's been funny seeing all the labels I've been given (on social media)."
