Cameron Norrie's Australian Open run ended in the third round with a 7-5 4-6 6-3 6-1 loss to Alexander Zverev. The defeat ended British singles hopes in Melbourne, marking Norrie's eighth straight loss to the German third seed. Despite a gritty second-set fightback, the world No. 26 couldn't sustain his aggressive tactics against Zverev's relentless baseline game.

Defending champion Carlos Alcaraz cruised into the fourth round with a 6-2 6-4 6-1 win over trick-shot specialist Corentin Moutet. The match was a highlight reel of tweeners and drop shots, with Alcaraz advancing without dropping a set. He'll next face American Tommy Paul for a quarterfinal spot.

Meanwhile, three-time finalist Daniil Medvedev battled back from two sets down to defeat Fabian Marozsan in a five-set epic. The Russian will now face American teenager Learner Tien in a rematch of their memorable 2025 encounter. Medvedev, who struggled last year, has already matched his 2025 Grand Slam win total.
