The men's doubles title of the 2025 Australian Open already has its owners. Henry Patten and Harri Heliovaara were able to come back against Simone Bolelli and Andrea Vavassori with a score of 6(16)-7 7-6(5) 6-3 to claim their second Grand Slam title after Wimbledon 2024. A great victory for a pair that showed great harmony together.
Madison Keys will sleep peacefully tonight after achieving her dream: lifting her first Grand Slam title at the 2025 Australian Open. However, her journey to this accomplishment has been far from easy, making her one of the players who have attempted the most times to win their first major. Specifically, Keys needed 46 appearances in the main draw of a Slam, surpassed only by Marion Bartoli with 47 appearances, Goran Ivanisevic with 48, and Flavia Pennetta with 49.

A few years ago, the name Lucas Herrera Sánchez appeared in the limelight, a German boy with a Chilean father and Argentine mother who played with two right-hand strokes and showed tremendous skill for it. He has been evolving and at 13 years old, he still maintains that uniqueness. So much so, that he is in the semifinals of the prestigious Les Petit As tournament in the under-14 category, astonishing everyone with his tennis devoid of a backhand, hitting the ball with both forehand sides.
The ambidextrous Lucas Herrera Sánchez (2011) is in the Les Petits As semifinals.

On his path - starting from the qualifiers - he defeated the top favorite Rafa Pagonis (#1 in Europe) and Evan Giurescu, one of the greatest promises of French tennis.

Novak Djokovic has been heavily criticized during this Australian Open for a reason that defies logic. The Serbian had to withdraw from his semi-final against Alexander Zverev due to discomfort in his leg that prevented him from continuing due to the pain. However, the problem with all of this is that some people were not entirely convinced that Nole was truly suffering from an injury, but rather thought it was all an act. Well, Djokovic had to reveal a scan of his tear to silence the 'haters' who consider themselves medical experts. "I thought I'd leave this here for all the 'experts' in sports injuries," he wrote alongside a picture of the tear suffered.

Carlos Alcaraz didn't waste much time in congratulating the day's protagonist at the 2025 Australian Open. Madison Keys was receiving all the attention after winning her first Grand Slam against Aryna Sabalenka, so the Spaniard didn't lag behind. In fact, Carlitos was one of the first to write a few words to the American through his social media. "Many congratulations. Well deserved. Enjoy," wrote the Murcian, always so attentive to the triumphs of his fellow players.

Aryna Sabalenka never loses her smile even in defeat. It is true that the Belarusian can get upset after losing a match, especially if it's the final of the Australian Open. However, she quickly knows how to handle things with humor. Proof of this is the speech she delivered at the trophy presentation, where she congratulated Madison Keys on the title and joked with her team. "The Australian Open is like my home tournament, thanks to everyone for your support. Should I say something to my team? As always, it's your fault guys. I don't want to see you next week, I hate you. No, really thank you so much for what you do for me and blah blah blah. No, I think we gave our best. Madison played amazing, I really couldn't do anything in this match. Next time we face each other, I will play better tennis. And I want to send love to my team. I love you even though I lost."

Madison Keys achieved the greatest accomplishment of her career just a few hours ago when she defeated Aryna Sabalenka in the final of the Australian Open. The American's path to glory hasn't been easy as she had to face tough opponents, such as Iga Swiatek in the semifinals. However, despite the challenges, Keys was able to claim her first Grand Slam title. She has now joined a select group of women who were capable of defeating both the number 1 and number 2 players in the world on their way to a Slam title. Since 2000, a total of 7 tennis players, including Keys, have achieved this feat: Venus Williams, Jennifer Capriati, Serena Williams, Justine Henin, Maria Sharapova, and Svetlana Kuznetsova.

He is one of the standout names of the 2025 Australian Open, and his example makes all fans sigh at the possibility of a new star emerging. Henry Bernet has been crowned junior champion of the first Grand Slam of the year, and his parallels with Federer are so overwhelming that it is hard to resist presenting him as a potential natural heir. He defeated Willwerth 6-3 6-4, showcasing an imposing tennis and creating an unstoppable excitement in Switzerland.
Not every day can end in victory, and Aryna Sabalenka had to experience that today. The world number 1 saw her chance for a third consecutive title at the Australian Open slip away when Madison Keys defeated her in three sets. The Belarusian did not take this defeat well, which is completely understandable after the long journey needed to reach the grand final. Aryna struck her racket against the ground before throwing it away and sitting on the bench to let out her frustration under a towel. A great outburst from a player who saw success so close, yet so far away. That was the moment.

Madison Keys finally has her first Grand Slam trophy in hand after her victory over Aryna Sabalenka in the 2025 Australian Open final. The American achieved this on her second attempt, becoming the first woman in 20 years to defeat the world number 2, Iga Swiatek, and the number 1, Sabalenka, to claim the title in Melbourne. It's been a while since something like this happened, not since Serena Williams. A great journey for Keys, who continues to surpass herself. Additionally, she is also the oldest player (29 years old) to defeat a top 2 ranking player in the semifinals and final of a Grand Slam.

Novak Djokovic has been heavily criticized during this Australian Open for a reason that defies logic. The Serbian had to withdraw from his semi-final against Alexander Zverev due to discomfort in his leg that prevented him from continuing due to the pain. However, the problem with all of this is that some people were not entirely convinced that Nole was truly suffering from an injury, but rather thought it was all an act. Well, Djokovic had to reveal a scan of his tear to silence the 'haters' who consider themselves medical experts. "I thought I'd leave this here for all the 'experts' in sports injuries," he wrote alongside a picture of the tear suffered.
Seeing how two tennis legends publicly questioned the truthfulness of Novak Djokovic's injury has been one of the most embarrassing moments of the 2025 Australian Open, especially after witnessing the Serbian having to withdraw due to that physical issue. John McEnroe and Boris Becker trivialized the problem and warned that it could be fake on Novak's part, who was asked about it at the press conference. "Honestly, I haven't read their comments in detail, but all I will say is that it is much easier to criticize and judge than to understand. That is the lesson of my life," he declared on Sportsklub.

The pursuit by Novak Djokovic of a 25th Grand Slam title is presented by some media as the quest for the historical record of titles won in this category, just as Serena Williams was obsessed with reaching that number. However, it is important to clarify that Margaret Court won 11 of her 24 titles in the Open Era, with the rest in a radically different context when tennis was not professional. Therefore, one cannot compare one thing with the other, and it is fair to say that Novak Djokovic already holds the record for Grand Slam titles won.

Novak Djokovic is aware that he is running out of bullets and made some disturbing statements when asked if this would be his last appearance at the Australian Open. "I don't know, there is a possibility that it might be. Who knows? I want to keep going, but I will have to see how the year goes. I like coming here to play, it's where I've done the best in my career; if I am healthy and motivated, I see no reason not to play, but that possibility exists, yes," he concluded.
With the victories of Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev in the semifinals of the Australian Open 2025, something will happen that has not occurred since 2019. It will be the first time since Novak Djokovic and Rafa Nadal that the final in Melbourne will feature the ATP's top 2 ranked players. Therefore, we can look forward to a great match of maximum interest to see who will dominate the court, whether the defending champion or a player eager to win his first Slam.
Something broke between the Australian crowd and Novak Djokovic in 2021, and the wounds have not finished healing. What happened at this Australian Open 2025 could be another turning point, with a significant part of the audience booing the Serbian when he decided to retire and leave the court. He did not hesitate to respond ironically by looking around and raising his thumbs.

What happened at this Australian Open 2025 could be another turning point, with a significant part of the audience booing the Serbian when he decided to retire and leave the court. He did not hesitate to respond ironically by looking around and raising his thumbs.
Carlos Alcaraz didn't waste much time in congratulating the day's protagonist at the 2025 Australian Open. Madison Keys was receiving all the attention after winning her first Grand Slam against Aryna Sabalenka, so the Spaniard didn't lag behind. In fact, Carlitos was one of the first to write a few words to the American through his social media. "Many congratulations. Well deserved. Enjoy," wrote the Murcian, always so attentive to the triumphs of his fellow players.
Novak Djokovic started with physical issues in the match but ended up finding a great level in all areas to defeat Carlos Alcaraz in four sets, earning a spot in the semifinals of the Australian Open 2025: "The first thing I want to say is that he has all my respect and admiration for all he represents and what he has achieved in his still short career. He has four Grand Slams, and I'm sure we will continue to see him, maybe not as much as I would like, that's for sure," he said jokingly. "I would love for today's match to be the final. I don't know if Sascha is still awake, if he is watching us, but it is one of the most epic matches I have ever played in my life. I don't want to talk much about my injury, but the medication started to work. I didn't know if I would continue in case of losing the second set. I saw that Carlos started to doubt from the baseline, and I started to feel better."
On the court, right after the victory, Novak Djokovic said he would have retired if he had lost on the second serve. During the press conference, Carlos Alcaraz shared his perspective, which was very different from the Serbian's: "When I won the first set, I tried not to let him breathe and to go for it, to see if he would lower his level or give me more tranquility. There have been several moments where I did not take advantage of my opportunities properly. Small moments in the match that make the difference. I needed to attack more. Someone thinking about retirement would not have played the way he did afterward. Everyone saw he was struggling to move, and in the third and fourth set, I didn't see any of that. I believe that even if he had lost the second set, I would have had to work hard to beat him. I won't go into details, but I don't think he would have retired."
Carlos Alcaraz wants to return to the top-2 of the ATP ranking and shorten the gap as much as possible with Sinner, the main leader of the world classification. To get back within reach of the Italian after this 2025 Australian Open, he already knows that he will have to reach the final of the tournament, defeating Djokovic in the quarterfinals and, if that happens, Zverev in the semifinals.
Carlos Alcaraz is eliminated from the Australian Open 2025, the same result as he had in Melbourne last season. On the one hand, the Spaniard ensures maintaining the same points as last year. In this case, that serves Carlos to stay in the Top 3 regardless of what happens in Australia. However, on the downside, the player from Murcia will not be able to fight at the moment to regain ground in the ATP Ranking Top 2.
Exciting day ahead on Tuesday, January 21st in the 2025 Australian Open. The day session kicks off with Paula Badosa and Coco Gauff on court, followed by Tommy Paul and Alexander Zverev. In the evening at Rod Laver Arena, Aryna Sabalenka will face Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova, while the highlight is the clash between Novak Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz wrapping up the day in Australia.
Just a few minutes after the match between Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic ended, in which the Serbian emerged victorious, this moment occurred between the Murcian and the Brit. Andy Murray approached Alcaraz in the gym area of the 2025 Australian Open to share a warm and respectful greeting as the coach of the Serbian. Despite the defeat, Carlitos remained smiling throughout.
Carlos Alcaraz is playing his 16th Grand Slam tournament and has reached the quarterfinals in 10 of them, an impressive record that is reinforced by the youth with which he has achieved it. The Murcian is the second youngest player of the entire Open Era to reach double-digit quarterfinal appearances in events of this magnitude, behind only Mats Wilander.

With the victories of Jannik Sinner and Alexander Zverev in the semifinals of the Australian Open 2025, something will happen that has not occurred since 2019. It will be the first time since Novak Djokovic and Rafa Nadal that the final in Melbourne will feature the ATP's top 2 ranked players. Therefore, we can look forward to a great match of maximum interest to see who will dominate the court, whether the defending champion or a player eager to win his first Slam.
The Serbian admits that the plan was to be in Malaga on the day of the semifinals, but Spain's early elimination meant that nothing went as expected.
Ben Shelton broke a new personal record at the 2025 Australian Open by defeating Lorenzo Sonego in the quarterfinals and securing a spot in the semifinals in Melbourne. With this achievement, the American shares an interesting fact with Rafa Nadal. Since 1988, the Spanish and the American are the only two left-handed players to have reached the semifinals in both Grand Slams played on hard courts: the Australian Open and the US Open.
The Serbian delved into the future of his relationship with Federer and Nadal, leaving nothing unsaid... and expressed optimism that two young players, one in particular, could break their records.
Carlos Alcaraz defeated Nuno Borges (6-2 6-4 6-7 6-2) and became the fourth player in the Open Era to win ten Men's Singles matches in all four Grand Slams before turning 22. The only players to achieve this precocity statistic were legends such as Mats Wilander, Rafael Nadal, and Novak Djokovic. Carlos thus equals another record that positions him as one of the best young players in tennis history.
The Kazakh, outspokenly, harshly criticized the retirement methods of both legends and also claimed that doping controls were skipped.
Being on par with Roger Federer and Rafa Nadal in any statistic means you are doing things right in your tennis career. Twenty-seven-year-old American Taylor Fritz has reached the level of both legends by being the only player, after them, to advance through the first two rounds of the Australian Open while conceding fewer games. Nadal lost only four games in his first two matches of the 2011 edition, whereas Federer only dropped six in 2008. As for Fritz, he lost five games against Jenson Brooksby (6-2 6-0 6-3) and three against Christian Garín (6-2 6-1 6-0), making a total of eight.
Rafael Nadal always made it clear that he did not want to compromise his future health as he wanted to have a normal life in which he could enjoy time with his son and play sports. One of the Spanish's favorite hobbies that he had to put aside for a long time was playing soccer. Well, shortly after retiring, you can already see him playing casual games with friends and staff from the Rafa Nadal Academy.
