Where else would you stick a wild card but on a ground pass court?

I don't think he was a wild card for this tournament. Nor a Qualifier.

Pretty sure they put one on RLA in Round 1 last year though. So it is possible.

This Chris o Connell match has 5 set epic written all over it.....

Tommy Paul an unofficial Aussie with the outfit

I think he got his spot through the Protected Ranking category

So should he have played on more of a ground court where more of his fans could get in? Or on a bigger court like Rod Laver?

Sorry YeoShuey but I was one of those flogs that cheered his missed serves and double faults…we prob won’t be friends anymore lol

I was more annoyed at the one at the Alcaraz match who kept distracting him on serve.

Aiava saves two match points

 

[Cleavy]

Nick still has the doubles guys...

he'll be in the comm box for the rest of the AO instead

 

[Gibbsy]

Yes Destanee Aiava! First ever main draw slam win, at the sixth time of asking. A set and 5-2 down!

Even more satisfying after having won through qualifying.

 

[MJG14]

Destanee Aiava wins in three! Into the second round of a GS for the first time.

Tommy Paul plays a nice game

"Cant see my self playing singles again"

Sounds like Nick is retiring from playing in slams probably be happy just to play in atp tours and collect money lols

Not surprising. He looked a shell of his former self tonight, it was a bit of a shock that he ever came back.

He will play the doubles it’s less taxing on the body

 

[NSWCROW]

He’s sympathy mining.

 

[LukeParkerno1]

Pretty bad from Paul today he’s invited O’Connell back into the match which is always dangerous

 

[Underarm]

Connells body had failed him in the last 2 games.

 

[BOMBERS 4 LIFE!!!!]

Qaulity set this between oconnel and paul

 

[yabsy]

O'connell hanging in there...Do we see a deciding match tiebreak

[LukeParkerno1]
