Where to watch Learner Tien vs. Lorenzo Sonego: Start time, TV channel, live stream for Australian Open 2025

An exciting clash awaits as American teenager Learner Tien takes on Italy’s Lorenzo Sonego in the fourth round of the Australian Open.

Tien, which is ranked as no. 121, has captivated fans with his tactical brilliance, qualifying for the main draw and stunning no. 5 seed Daniil Medvedev in a marathon match. His controlled aggression and composure under pressure have been hallmarks of his adventure racing.

Sonego, world no. 55, brings experience and resilience, having overtaken Stan Wawrinka to prevail in a grueling five-setter against Joao Fonseca. The Italian, known for his powerful serve and aggressive baseline play, enters with confidence after dismantling Fabian Marozsan in four sets.

While Tien’s tactical acumen gives him an edge, fatigue from his grueling road may be a factor. Sonego’s stability and physicality make this a compelling contest, with both players chasing their first Grand Slam quarter-finals.
