Buckle up possums, it’s the Australian Open!

New thread.

Who are the three people sat behind the union Jack flags? I've seen them at some of Jack's other matches - not sure if they are part of his entourage or just Jack super fans

Also - who is George - Is he a racing driver?

Andrey is looking focussed

Well done Andrey. Seemed happy with that set.

Opelka is an idiot-which is disappointing, I used to like him.
5-5 in the final between Andreeva and Tauson, annoying for viewers that they are on at the same time.

I don’t know who George is either!

George Russell, British F1 driver.

As soon as the commentators said at 6-5, we're heading for a tiebreak, I thought....that will put the mokkers on Jack

F1 is about the only sport that isn't watched in this house!

Jack could still come back here but Andrey is looking strong

Don't know who the bloke and 2 women are with the Union Jack. Yes, keep seeing them at Jack's matches. Probably just ex pats?

Jack failing yet again to convert break points.

Yes Andrey definitely seems to have the edge. I feel like Jack played better yesterday.

Good hold Jack.

Jack seems to be losing energy. He has played the last match of the day in the last 2 rounds, playing until quite late. Maybe the lack of recovery time is catching up with him?

Score watching the Dubai final- Andreeva dominated the tie break in the first set.
Will be a big win for her if she gets this title.

Mo seems to be enjoying himself.

Mo always enjoys himself

You could be right kazza, his last couple of matches have been pretty close contests as well. He does need to get more efficient about taking opportunities when he gets them.

I’m always happy to see Mo, such a benign presence in the chair.

His break point conversion stats for the last couple of matches is not good reading ice* *

Yes Jack! (Please hold).

That's a bit unexpected! Come on Jack!

What is Jack looking at?

Useless camera person!

Jack's team coming back with the goodies for him obviously had faith

If they don't, no one else will Jane
Well* *done Jack!

Well done Jack - Andrey seems to be unravelling a bit

The random super fans are happy

Andrey is playing some of the best and the worst shots I have seen him play

I don't know how they play with all those chains around their neck. Andrey is continually fiddling with them. Take them off! I know I've said this before
