The world’s top tennis players, including defending champions Novak Djokovic and Sofia Kenin, are in action Down Under for the first major of the year — and it’s already shaping up to be quite the tournament. Find out how to watch tennis online and get a 2021 Australian Open live stream today with the help of our guide. Due in part to Roger Federer’s continued absence through injury,2020 made stars of a new generation of talent, the brightest being US Open winner and Australian Open runner-up Dominic Thiem, as well as Daniil Medvedev, Stefanos Tsitsipas and the controversial Alexander Zverev. All are now pushing old kings like Djokovic — still the favourite at Melbourne Park — and Rafael Nadal like never before, and this year’s Men’s Singles could finally see a winner outside of the Big Three since Stan Wawrinka back in 2014. Just as competitive if not more so, the 2021 Australian Open Women’s Singles field can’t be said to have a front runner necessarily, with WTA World No.1 and home favourite Ashleigh Barty finally looking to win her native Grand Slam. To do so, she’ll need to conquer the likes of Simona Halep, Naomi Osaka and Aryna Sabalenka, as well as better rising stars like Coco Gauff and Iga Swiatek — plus the legendary Serena Williams, still chasing her record-equalling 24th Grand Slam singles title.
