Iva Jovic is being the great revelation of the 2026 Australian Open and surprised everyone in a press conference by acknowledging that her big idol, Novak Djokovic, had not only spoken with her but had also given her advice for her match against Jasmine Paolini. "I talked with him for a while yesterday; it was an incredible experience. He gave me very useful advice for my game and recommended incorporating a tactical variation to beat Paolini. I took it into account on the court, and it worked," said the American, admitting that the advice was to open the court with angles and not rush her attacks.

Nick Kyrgios spoke at a press conference about Gael Monfils and his farewell from the 2026 Australian Open after winning his doubles match alongside Leylah Fernandez: "Gael was one of my best friends on the tour. He welcomed me from the start and was always very kind. He is one of the kindest people on the tour. He's like a big kid. He has a very generous heart. Watching him play his last Australian Open, and this is obviously his final year on the tour, is emotional for everyone. He is a tennis legend. Names come to mind of someone who always put on a show, no matter where in the world you were, if Gael Monfils was playing, someone was watching him.

I wish him the best. I believe his legacy is that people can do it their way. Not everyone is Roger. Not everyone is Rafa. Not everyone is Djokovic. You can go out there, enjoy, be yourself, and have fun. It has been said that Monfils, Kyrgios, we never lived up to our talent, but if you look at his career now, he has an incredible resume. He has nothing, absolutely nothing more to prove. He's had a great career."

Coco Gauff had to come from behind to stay alive in this 2026 Australian Open. The American confessed at a press conference that she never knows where her father ends up watching her matches: "The reason is that he can't control his reactions. It's not necessarily because of me, but because of him. I told him, 'We have to stop this.' I heard that when I won the US Open, he was in the gym, and the TV was behind him, so the attendant had to tell him that I had indeed won, and then he ran out to greet me among the audience. I don't know where he was at Roland Garros. I've heard he's all over the grounds, usually glued to the screen, walking around."

Jasmine Paolini was defeated in the third round of the 2026 Australian Open by the formidable Iva Jovic. Without taking any credit away from her opponent, the Italian explained in a press conference why she couldn't perform at her best on the court: "I lay down on the couch after eating, and that wasn't good for my stomach. I went out on the court and couldn't move at my best, but I was trying to hang in there because I knew that with time I would feel better, but it wasn't enough to turn the match around."
