The quarterfinal action gets underway on Day 9 of the 2023 Australian Open on Tuesday, January 24.
Having ousted World No. 1 Iga Swiatek in the previous round, reigning Wimbledon champion Elena Rybakina will look to continue her hunt for another Grand Slam title. She now faces 17th seed and former French Open champion Jelena Ostapenko, who knocked out Auckland titlist Coco Gauff in the earlier round.
Two-time champion Victoria Azarenka will be in action in the other women's quarterfinal of the day. Although Melbourne Park is her happy hunting ground, anything short of her best won't suffice against her next opponent — the third-seeded Jessica Pegula.
Trending
On the men's side, third seed Stefanos Tsitsipas will aim to make it to the Australian Open semifinals for the fourth time in his career. The Greek, who needed five sets to see off Jannik Sinner in the Round of 16, has rising star Jiri Lehecka up next.
Adelaide International 1 runner-up Sebastian Korda, meanwhile, continues his charge through the first Slam of the year. Having ground out a five-set win over 10th seed Hubert Hurkacz in the fourth round, the 29th seed now meets 18th seed Karen Khachanov.
