The opening week of the 2021 Australian Open did not disappoint. An incredible bottom half of the women’s draw lived up to the hype, while Nick Kyrgios managed to electrify the locals before a pandemic reality check. On today’s show Simon and Devang take a look at how the Canadians did (and are doing) in Melbourne, and check in with Serena Williams, Novak Djokovic and Rafael Nadal. Plus, they give their best shot and predict how the final week will unfold.
