The current and ranked No. 1 champion in the world, Novak Djokovic, suffered an injury in the third round against Fritz Taylor, but managed to win by five sets.

Now it is not clear that he will play at all against Milos Raunic (14).

If the game still takes place, Djokovic will face an opponent he has won 11 times in 11 meetings.

"I do not know if I will go on the field at all or not," the Serb admitted.



The winner of this match will play against Sasha Zebrav (6) or Dusan Lajovic (23).

This will be the third meeting between the two, who have met twice so far at Roland Garros and in both cases the German managed to win in five sets.

The German wants to advance to the quarter-finals in Melbourne for the second time in his career after reaching the semi-finals last year.



Dominic Tim, who reached the final last year, worked hard in the third round and had to come back from a two-set deficit to overtake Nick Kirius.

Now the Austrian, who is ranked third in the tournament, will play in the quarterfinals against Gregor Dimitrov (18), who advanced to the quarterfinals of the Grand Slam for the first time since the United States Championship in 2019 then stopped in the semi-finals.

The Bulgarian leads 2: 3 in the head-to-head balance between the two.



The winner of this game will face in the quarterfinals against Felix Uja Eliasim (20) or the surprising Aslan Kratzb, who made it all the way from the qualifiers and has yet to drop a battle in the tournament, including a very impressive win against Diego Schwartzman in the third round.

Now waiting for Rossi, who has earned $ 618,000 so far during his career, a very tough opponent in the form of Uja Eliasim, who begins to realize his potential at the age of 20 and for the second time in his career managed to advance to the quarterfinals of the Grand Slam.

This will be the first meeting between the two.

Will you win the Elf again?

What a fascinating night and morning awaits in the women’s quarterfinals.

The first to go up to the main pitch will be Osaka speeches and Garbinia Mugurosa.

The two tennis players have not yet dropped a battle in the tournament and together they hold five Grand Slam titles (Osaka in three, Mugurosa in two).

Surprisingly these two excellent tennis players have never played against each other.

The winner of this match will play in the quarterfinals against the Czech Marka Vandrosova (19) or Su Wei Hessia.



Serena Williams has yet to drop a campaign in the tournament and dreams of winning her eighth title in Melbourne and her first Grand Slam title since winning her last Australian Championship in 2017.

Williams now faces a much tougher opponent than anything she has encountered so far in the character of Arena Sabalenka, ranked seventh in the tournament.

The Belarusian has not dropped a match in the tournament either and looks in great shape and will now try to beat Serena in what will be their first game between them.



The winner of this meeting will face the winner of perhaps the most intriguing game at this stage between Simona Halp (2) and Iga Shabiontek (15).

The 19-year-old Pole is in great shape since trampling them all on the way to winning the Roland Garros last year and also in Australia has yet to drop a battle, while the Elf lost one against Ayala Tomlianovic and was also close to relegation against her in the second round.

This will be the third meeting between them when the previous two were held at Roland Garros.

In 2019 the Alp defeated Shivontek 1: 6, 0: 6 and a year later in the same tournament that Biontech defeated the Alp 1: 6, 2: 6.
