Coco Gauff and Tommy Paul became the latest Americans ousted from the 2025 Australian Open, losing respective quarterfinal matches Tuesday in Melbourne. Top-ranked Belarusian Aryna Sabalenka advanced to the semifinals.

Aryna Sabalenka revealed that the wind was causing big problems for her and admitted that she was just hoping to "magically" get through her Australian Open quarterfinal match. On Tuesday, the 2023 and 2024 Australian Open champion lost her first set at Melbourne Park since Elena Rybakina took one in the 2023 final.

Pavlyuchenkova’s strength is her power from both sides. When she came up, few opponents could match it. If anything, though, Sabalenka has taken that power to another level, while also adding spin, weight, and margin that Pavyluchenkova has never had. Winner: Sabalenka
