About this episode
This episode covers the dramatic events of Day 6 at the Australian Open, focusing on player tensions and controversies during matches.
Day 6 of the Australian Open was packed with drama, and this episode of Grand Slam Daily breaks it all down. The main talking point was the tension between Sorana Cirstea and Naomi Osaka, with Cirstea getting annoyed that Osaka was "pumping herself up" right in the middle of her service routine. Things also got heated in the doubles, where Nick Kyrgios was fuming over the fact that he couldn't challenge a "let" call, especially after a video review had already gone against his partner, Thanasi Kokkinakis, for reaching over the net.
