Australian Open 2023 TV Schedule: When are Iga Swiatek, Stefanos Tsitsipas & Victoria Azarenka playing? - Day 7, Round 4
The fourth-round action will commence on Day 7 of the 2023 Australian Open. Players will be eager to seal their spots in the quarterfinals on Sunday (January 22).
On the women's side, World No. 1 Iga Swiatek will continue her hunt for her fourth Grand Slam title and her first Australian Open crown. The French and US Open champion faces Wimbledon winner Elena Rybakina in a battle between two reigning Major champions.
Interestingly, the Pole lost to Rybakina the last time they crossed swords at the World Tennis League, a high-profile exhibition event held in December. It remains to be seen if Swiatek can avenge that defeat at the first Slam of the year.
Two-time Australian Open champion Victoria Azarenka, meanwhile, faces Lin Zhu, who ousted sixth seed Maria Sakkari in a three-set thriller on Friday night. Azarenka has been in fine form herself and accounted for 10th seed Madison Keys in the earlier round.
In men's singles, the fourth-round clash between third seed Stefanos Tsitsipas and 15th seed Jannik Sinner will be the one to watch. Tsitsipas won the Mubadala World Tennis Championship in the run-up to the new season and also took Greece to the semifinals of the United Cup.
Sinner, on the other hand, made it to the quarterfinals of the Adelaide International 1 ahead of the Melbourne Major. He was stretched to five sets by Marton Fucsovics in the third round of the Australian Open.
