MELBOURNE, Australia – It’s semifinal day in both Adelaide and Auckland.

With the Australian Open starting on the Sunday, so getting things done by Saturday.

Opportunities for Ben Shelton and Sebastian Korda – and even for Cana-Chilean Alejandro Tabilo, who was ooking for a final berth in Auckland after he got a walkover from No. 2 seed Cameron Norrie in the quarterfinals.

Shelton and Korda couldn’t make the date. But Tabilo did. And so did Jack Draper

(Auckland is 18 hours ahead of EST; Adelaide is 15 1/2 hours ahead).
