Dart, 23, battled hard against two-time Grand Slam champion Simona Halep, who needed a fourth match point to win 6-2 6-4 on Rod Laver Arena. The Romanian fourth seed, a beaten finalist in 2018, fought off the late scare to win in 77 minutes. Watson, 27, suffered a swift defeat by Belgium's 16th seed Elise Mertens. British number two Watson, ranked 75th in the world, won only eight points in the second set as she lost 6-3 6-0 in just 56 minutes.

It's fair enough to play music if they're changing ends at 3-3 or 6-6 but that was taking it too far.

He is the GOAT of all time for sure. Federer the greatest surely.

The top seed made 2019 runner-up Kvitova pay for a host of missed chances in a 7-6 (8-6) 6-2 victory at the Australian Open. French Open champion Barty will face American 14th seed Sofia Kenin next.
