'magic' Gael Monfils Stuns Taylor Fritz As Iga Swiatek Slays Emma Raducanu At Australian Open

Iga Swiatek demolished Emma Raducanu on Saturday to sweep into the last 16 of the Australian Open as 38-year-old Frenchman Gael Monfils stunned fourth seed Taylor Fritz.

Also on day seven in Melbourne, American qualifier Learner Tien, 19, won in straight sets to reach the second week and extend his fairytale run.

World number one Jannik Sinner will step up his title defence in later action.

In a one-sided battle of former US Open champions, Swiatek romped to a 6-1, 6-0 triumph in a statement victory as she pursues a first Melbourne crown.

Emma Navarro, the eighth seed from the United States, joined the Pole in the next round with a gritty three-set win over Ons Jabeur.
