Australian Open live: Alex De Minaur takes on American giant-killer

Are we ready, tennis fans?

Australia’s best-ranked man Alex de Minaur is up next on Rod Laver Arena against American rising star Alex Michelsen.

Eighth-seed de Minaur has made the quarterfinals plenty of times of grand slams but never at his home one. It would be a big moment for the 25-year-old who’s had a sharp rise in recent years.

But standing in his way is 20-year-old Michelsen, ranked 42nd in the world, who has had a stunning run at this year’s Open. He upset 11th-seed Stefanos Tstsipas in the first round and 19th-seed Karen Khachanov in the third round.

Will de Minaur be his next big scalp? Or will the Aussie be able to conquer the fourth round of the AO this year.

It’s all about to go down at Melbourne Park.
