Madison Keys has become the latest player to fall victim to an awkward chat with Australian Open host broadcasters Channel Nine. Earlier in the tournament, Novak Djokovic boycotted his on-court interview in response to “insulting and offensive comments” made by one of the channel’s presenters.

Madison Keys turned pro in 2009 and had to wait for more than a decade to lift her first Grand Slam title. Alexander Zverev turned pro in 2013, and now he too has a chance to fulfill his Grand Slam dream.

An American woman is a champion once again. After having to face the two best players in the world -- Iga Switaek and Aryna Sabalenka -- Madison Keys has claimed her first Grand Slam title at the Australian Open. Keys outlasted Sabalenka in the final on Saturday over three sets to accomplish the feat.

From Alex (de Minaur) to the Bahamas, from the crowds to Djokovic – this is the A to Z of the highlights and talking points of the 2025 Australian Open.

Alexander Zverev is into the Australian Open final after Novak Djokovic retired hurt after losing the first set of his clash with the German. The German had taken a tie-break (7-5) when the Serbian called it quits, having struggled with a muscular problem in his left leg. Djokovic was booed as he limped off court.

Her opponent, Keys, also last reached the semi-finals in 2022 but was beaten by Ashleigh Barty who went on to win the tournament. Keys’s previous two outing saw her battle past Elena Rybakina in the fourth round then Elina Svitolina in the quarters. The American has had a tougher run but is a wiley competitior and should give Swiatek some trouble.

Novak Djokovic had quite the reaction to beating Carlos Alcaraz in the 2025 Australian Open quarterfinals on Tuesday.

Madison Keys has won the Australian Open against the odds! She breaks Aryna Sabalenka in the final game of the match to wrap up a 6-3 2-6 7-5 victory. The 29-year-old bursts into tears almost immediately, falling into the arms of her husband in a touching scene.

Zverev, who will face Jannik Sinner in tonight’s Australian Open final, has lost his previous two grand slam finals in five sets – last year’s Roland-Garros decider against Carlos Alcaraz and the 2020 US Open final against Dominic Thiem.
