    Caroline Wozniacki's Australian Open title defence is over

    Caroline Wozniacki's Australian Open title defence is over


    The women's third seed has lost 6-4, 4-6, 6-3 to 2008 champion Maria Sharapova.

    Men's second seed Rafael Nadal's notched up his 250th win at a grand slam, with a straight sets victory over local hope Alex de Minaur .

    He says he tried to make de Minaur feel like he didn't have any control in each point, as the Aussie is super quick and likes to go inside the court fast.

    German Angelique Kerber has also knocked out an Aussie, thumping Kimberly Birrell 6-1, 6-love.

    Men's sixth seed Marin Cilic has needed five sets to overcome Spaniard Fernando Verdasco.

    TENNIS WITH CROWN FORKLIFTS. WHEN IT COMES TO FORKLIFTS, THERE'S NOTHING LIKE A CROWN.
