–

MELBOURNE, Australia – Félix Auger-Aliassime had, on paper, the “easiest” of all the fourth-round matches on the docket today.

He faced unseeded Jiri Lehecka, who took care of No. 11 seed Cameron Norrie in the previous round. He couldn’t get it done.

Watch out for Tsitsipas vs Sinner, and Hurkacz vs Korda after Korda’s impressive elimination of Daniil Medvedev on Friday.

Both went the distance – a lot of good tennis at Melbourne Park Sunday.

Melbourne is 16 hours ahead of Eastern time.
