–

MELBOURNE, Australia – Not mamy still alive as the first week of the Australian Open turns into the second week. Only Dabrowski and Routliffe, who are in the women’s doubles quarterfinals, are still in. Routliffe is also in the mixed doubles quarterfinal with Kiwi Michael Venus.

There are no juniors to keep track of, either, as none made the cut for the first junior major of the year.

And it’s the third straight indoor hard-court Challenger in Oeiras, Portugal. Which – despite the losing and whatno – is not a bad place to spend three weeks. And the Canadian results have been impressive, with Liam Draxl reaching the singles final and already winning the doubles with countryman Cleeve Harper.
