Day 5 Recap of the Third Round

Blinkova scored a massive upset on Day 5, beating Rybakina in a marathon that included the longest tiebreak for a women’s match in grand slam history. Blinkova won the match 6-4, 4-6, 7-6 20 , with the tiebreak lasting more than half an hour. Both players saved multiple match points in the tiebreak. Blinkova moves on to take on Jasmine Paolini in the third round, but one has to wonder how much physical and mental energy she has moving forward.

Also in the women’s draw, top-seeded American Jessica Pegula is out after losing Clara Burel in straight sets. Eighth seed Maria Sakkari is also out after losing in the second round, leaving just five of the top-10 seeds in contention.

The men’s draw hasn’t been nearly as unpredictable as the women’s as nine of the top-10 seeds are still in contention, although we did get our first big upset of the tournament on Day 5 as French wildcard Arhur Cazaux beat eighth seed Holger Rune 7-6 4 , 6-4, 4-6, 6-3. Cameron Norrie overcame a two-set deficit to also advance to the third round. Seventeen of the top-20 seeds in the men’s draw are still in contention.

Magdalena Frech vs. Anastasia Zakharova

AO Lines: Magdalena Frech -230; Anastasia Zakharova +165

Anastasia Zakharova is one of three qualifiers into the third round in the women’s draw and has plenty of momentum after beating Kaja Juva 6-1, 6-1. It’s the first grand slam appearance for the 22-year-old Russian and she’s making the most of her opportunity, but faces a formidable test in Magdalena Frech, who is coming off a win over Caroline Garcia.

Alycia Parks vs. Coco Gauff

AO Lines: Alycia Parks +775; Coco Gauff -2500

American Alycia Parks is having a breakout performance at the Australian Open, reaching the third round of a grand slam for the first time in her career after a second-round victory over Leylah Fernandez. She has 23 aces in her first two matches and could present a challenge for Coco Gauff, the fourth seed and winner of the 2023 US Open. Gauff, however, has cruised to consecutive two-set victories and looks ready to dominate the WTA Tour in 2024.
