Incredible but true. The four players who have reached the semifinals of the Australian Open 2026 have done so without dropping a single set throughout the tournament. Aryna Sabalenka, Elina Svitolina, Elena Rybakina, and Jessica Pegula enter the penultimate round having demonstrated great superiority over the rest of their opponents, a feat that has only been seen on five occasions in the Open Era, although three of them had certain conditions.

In the 1970 Australian Open, there was a small draw, and they only had to play three matches to reach the semifinals, while in the 1976 and 1980 US Opens, some of them received a bye in the first round. Only in Roland Garros 1995 did all four semifinalists win five matches without dropping a set. They were Arantxa Sánchez-Vicario, Kimiko Date, Conchita Martínez, and Steffi Graf, with the German winning the title that year.

Iga Swiatek has bid farewell to the 2026 Australian Open in the quarterfinals, with the setback it entails for her aspirations to reclaim the WTA number 1 ranking in the short term. The Polish player loses 350 points in the rankings, dropping to 2,492 points behind Aryna Sabalenka, a gap that could widen if the Belarusian continues to win matches in Melbourne. Furthermore, her lead over her pursuers has narrowed, potentially leaving her with just over 300 points if Rybakina emerges as the champion of the first Grand Slam of the year.

Amanda Anisimova was defeated in the quarterfinals of the 2026 Australian Open by a strong Jessica Pegula. In the press conference, Amanda talked about the issue of cameras present throughout the tournament: "You realize after a few days, I knew that was there, so I kept calm and went to the locker room. There are good moments, obviously, that people see, and that's fun. Then, when you lose, there are probably not-so-good moments. The fact that they posted Coco's video is tough because she had nothing to do with it. I knew there wasn't much privacy, so I went to the locker room and knew I could be there."

The images of Coco Gauff breaking a racket at the 2026 Australian Open facilities have already gone viral worldwide. Iga Swiatek commented on it in a press conference: "Are we tennis players or are we like animals in a zoo being watched even when we poop? Obviously, she was exaggerating, but it would be nice to have some privacy. It would also be nice, I don't know, to have your own process and not always be watched. There are tournaments where it's impossible, and you are constantly being observed, if not by fans who can buy passes to watch practice, then by cameras. I don't think it should be that way because we are tennis players.

We are supposed to be observed on the court and in press conferences. That's our job. It's not our job to be a meme when you forget your accreditation. It's funny. People have something to talk about, but I don't think it's necessary for us."
