Australian Open R4 - A tale of two (totally different) draws
Listen now
Description
Seeds are tumbling in the women’s draw leaving Coco Gauff and Aryna Sabalenka the sole survivors, both hungry to pick up Grand Slam title number 2. In the way of a semi-final repeat of the US Open Final are Barbora Krejčíková and Marta Kostyuk.  Elsewhere there was heartbreak for Elina Svitolina but Ukrainian hopes were kept alive by Dayana Yastremska who continues her dream run down under.  On the men’s side Sinner, Alcaraz and Djokovic made serene progress whilst Zverev, Fritz and Rublev were made to work. With the top 6 seeds all still in the draw for the first time in the Open Era, there has never been a tougher last 8 at the Australian Open.  Joel and Chris also make their predictions for the quarter-finals and announce the winner of Collect-A-Set!
