How to watch Australian Open: Women’s quarterfinals | Channel, stream, match times, preview

On By Littum

MELBOURNE — As the second week of the first major of the season continues, eight women look to move within one win of the Australian Open final.

MONDAY JANUARY 20

(3) Coco Gauff vs. (11) Paula Badosa (19:30)

If Gauff wants to stay in the major championship conversation, she will have to get through a talented player in Badosa. Gauff had to go the distance against Belinda Bencic in the round of 16, while Badosa also lost a single set en route to the quarters.

(1) Aryna Sabalenka vs. (27) Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova (3am)

Sabalenka’s quest for a third consecutive Australian Open title continues as the Belarusian looks to remain perfect in Melbourne. However, Pavlyuchenkova has Sabalenka’s number, going 2-1 in singles matches, including a third-round win at the 2021 French Open.

TUESDAY JANUARY 21

(2) Iga Swiatek vs. (8) Emma Navarro

Perhaps the most exciting of all the women’s quarter-final matches will see Swiatek, who has never won an Aussie Open title, take on Emma Navarro – a player who has gone the distance in each of her four matches to progress to the quarter-finals in Melbourne for the first time in his career.

(19) Madison Keys vs. (28) Elina Svitolina

Keys has always been a player capable of making strong runs in Grand Slam tournaments. However, she has never reached a final since the US Open in 2017. She is set to take on Svitolina, who is trying to reach a major hardcourt semifinal for the first time since the 2019 US Open.
