MELBOURNE, Australia – Three finals today, in a scheduling change that has both of the doubles finals being played on the Saturday.

Previously, the women’s doubles final had taken place earlier in the day on Sunday, hours before the men’s singles final.

Getting in on a grounds pass for those is a great opportunity.

And then, the women’s final that made a whole lot of sense given results in recents months. And, overall, a virtuoso performance by Elena Rybakina to take it.

(Melbourne is 16 hours ahead of ET)
