Kubler and Polmans faced an uphill battle after losing the first set 7-6 (7-4). Despite breaking back and forcing a tie-breaker, unforced errors at the net cost them dearly. The Aussie crowd, including a sea of Gen Alpha kids cheering with their iconic ‘6-7’ gesture, is rallying behind them. But with Harrison and Skupski leading, time is running out.
Off the Court:
The weather played its part, with a slight drizzle prompting the Rod Laver Arena roof to close. Meanwhile, the stands are buzzing with competing chants from Aussie fans and a vocal American contingent. Will local support be enough to inspire Kubler and Polmans?
