Jabeur, Wozniacki shot down by Russian young guns

China Daily  

Russia's Mirra Andreeva takes selfies after winning Tunisia's Ons Jabeur during their women's singles match on day four of the Australian Open tennis tournament in Melbourne on Jan 17, 2024. MELBOURNE — Sixth seed Ons Jabeur and former champion Caroline Wozniacki both fell victim to exciting young Russians in the Australian Open second round on Wednesday. Sinner, the driving force behind Italy's first Davis Cup triumph, was delighted that the inclement weather forced the roof of Margaret Court Arena to be closed for his match against Jesper de Jong. It initially looked like the women's fourth seed would follow Sinner's lead, but Dolehide dragged her into a real scrap and Gauff was forced to fight until her fourth match point to prevail 7-6, 6-2.
