The women's singles was a tale of two halves, chaos in the top half, with 12th seed Qinwin Zheng making it all the way through to her first grand slam final. In the bottom half, defending Aussie champ Aryna Sabalenka was superb and it was the Belarusian who stormed to a straight-sets victory in Saturday's final.
The men's singles was more predictable, right up until Jannik Sinner produced the performance of his career so far to defeat 10-time champion Novak Djokovic in their semi-final. Sinner will face third seed Daniil Medvedev, who fought back from two sets down to beat Alexander Zverev in an epic contest. Sinner vs Zverev will be on Sunday.

Matches worth watching on Sunday, January 28
After two weeks of scintillating tennis, it's time for Jannik Sinner vs Daniil Medvedev in the Australian Open 2024 men's singles final.
Sinner was magnificent in beating Novak Djokovic in four titanic sets in his semi-final and confirming his recent ascent to the top of the men's game. The 22-year-old's massive weapons – big serve, even bigger forehand – make him dangerous regardless of opponent, with world number one Djoko the only player to take a set off him this tournament.
Medvedev has been the marathon man this tournament, going five sets on three different occasions and more late finishes than Lindsay Lohan. The Russian's will to win is unmatched in the ATP Tour and he'll need every last morsel to overcome the form horse.
