Break Point

The Australian Open kicks off amidst controversy as protests erupt over the country's decision to deport defending champion Novak Djokovic. It's a symbolic moment, as many of the past decade's dominant players are absent from this tourney, opening the door for a new generation. World No. 7 Matteo Berrittini and his girlfriend, No. 43 Ajla Tomljanovic, are each hoping to take advantage of the opportunity to bag their first Grand Slam wins. They'll need each other for support through the grueling early rounds of this event - because in a game that's played as much in the mind as with the body, it takes more than physical skill to claim the biggest prize.
