From Morning Report, 8:27 am on 21 January 2022

Australia's Nick Kyrgios put yesterday on a show against the tournament favourite Daniil Medvedev, but it was the Russian who managed to clinch the win.

There were also two major shocks in the women's draw - number three seed Garbine Muguruza and sixth seed Anett Kontaveit were sent packing within minutes of each other.

Meanwhile, Ugo Humbert of France has tested positive for Covid-19 and World Number three Alexander Zverev claims there are a lot more Australian Open players who probably have Covid-19.

Max Towle gets the lowdown from the host of the tennis radio show The First Serve, Brett Phillips, from Melbourne.
