No Australians are left in standing in the singles draw after Alex de Minaur was beaten by world No.1 Carlos Alcaraz in their Tuesday night quarter-final.
In a contest stuffed with exceptional rallies, brilliant shot-making and repeated pressure points, Alcaraz absorbed the Australian star’s best, then wore him down to score a runaway 7-5, 6-2, 6-1 triumph that sets up another clash with Alexander Zverev.

Although de Minaur said he was proud to have made back-to-back Australian Open quarter-finals, he was disappointed with how he played against the Spaniard.
“I would have loved to have given more out there tonight,” he said post match.
Tuesday night’s loss follows de Minaur’s straight sets loss to Alcaraz’s rival Jannik Sinner last year.
