Naomi Osaka won the tournament's opening match for her dad at the Australian Open. Serena Williams won hers for her daughter.
Marcos Giron won the NCAA men’s single championship in 2014 when he was at UCLA. Now, he readies for his first match at the Australian Open.Her sister didn’t fare as well on the first day. Coco Gauff followed up her upset of Venus Williams at Wimbledon last year with a 7-6 , 6-3 victory in the evening match. It was Gauff’s first appearance in the Open main draw.
She later explained: “He’s just superstitious. Because, like, he literally — because, like, before when he used to sit in my box I would just look at him and complain a lot, but I have matured over the past, like, three or four years he hasn’t sat in my box.“ Father-of-four Roger Federer had a routine 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 win over Steve Johnson in his first tournament of the year, saying he was content with his form after a vacation and some heavy off-season training. He’s 21-0 in first-round matches at the Australian Open, where he’s won six of his 20 major titles.
Osaka is aiming to be only the ninth woman to successfully defend the Australian Open title. She wasn’t able to do that at the U.S. Open last year, when she lost in the fourth round, but says she learned some valuable lessons there.
