Having missed the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open last season due to three surgeries on both wrists and her left ankle, Raducanu made an impressive return last week, despite her defeat to Elina Svitolina in Auckland.

Alcaraz, a grand slam champion, aims to end Novak Djokovic’s winning streak at the Australian Open, returning to Melbourne after missing the 2023 tournament due to injury. He faces veteran Richard Gasquet on Rod Laver Arena.

Andy Murray raised doubts about his future following a straight-sets defeat to the 30th seed Tomas Martin Etcheverry on Monday. The 36-year-old couldn’t replicate his Melbourne heroics from the previous year as Etcheverry capitalized on Murray’s error-strewn performance, winning 6-4 6-2 6-2 in two hours and 23 minutes.

The night session highlighted the return of Naomi Osaka, as the two-time Australian Open champion played her first Grand Slam match in 15 months after giving birth last summer. However, Osaka faced a tough challenge from an inspired opponent in Caroline Garcia, who delivered a masterclass in serving to win the thrilling clash 6-3 7-6. Here’s everything you need to know.
