2022 AUSTRALIAN OPEN - DAY 13 :

Women' s Singles Final : Ashleigh Barty (1) won her 15th WTA tournament in career (third Grand Slam and first Australian Open), defeating
Danielle Rose Collins (27) 6-3, 7-6 (2) after 1h 27'

First set remained in balance until the 3-2 for Barty, when, with a double fault, Collins was broken, with Barty going 5-2 and then closing the set 6-3 after 32'; in the second set, the American freed herself from brakes and fears, immediately flying 3-0 and then, with another break in the sixth game, going to serve for the set on 5-1, but, as soon as the third set began to appear concrete, Collins' fears returned, so the world's N° 1, who never lost a set in the tournament, returned forcefully into the match, breaking two consecutive times her opponent, without even giving her a set-point, so the set was decided by the tie-break, in which Barty, now on the wings of enthusiasm, immediately went 4-0, then 5-1, and closed the match 7-2, becoming the first Australian to triumph in the Australian Open Singles in 44 years (the last was Christine O'Neil in 1978) and the second active tennis player, after Serena Williams, to have won at least one major on all surfaces, after her triumphs on the grass at Wimbledon in 2021 and on the clay court of Roland Garros in 2019, while Collins, in addition to the excellent tournament she played, which gave her the first Grand Slam Final in career, can console herself also with her best ranking : from Monday, she will enter for the first time in the WTA "Top 10", in tenth place.

O. Jabeur (9) withdraw due to a back problem

Novak Djokovic has been expelled from Australia : this was decided by the Federal Court, which met to examine the appeal presented by the lawyers of the number one in world tennis against the withdrawal of the visa. During the hearing, the three judges listened for several hours to the arguments of the Australian government, according to which the presence of Nole, not vaccinated against the Coronavirus, would represent a "health risk". The Serbian lawyers, on the other hand, defined the decision of the authorities as "irrational" and "unreasonable". Djokovic therefore losed his battle and will not be able to stay in the country to defend his title at the Australian Open. "The court's decision is that the request be rejected with the legal costs to be borne by the tennis player," reads the ruling. To take his place in the first round of the tournament, against Serbian Miomir Kecmanovic, will be a lucky-loser : the 28-year-old Italian Salvatore Caruso.
