Week two of the 2026 Australian Open begins with a fourth round featuring several blockbuster matchups, including three top-10 clashes.
The lack of major shocks in the opening week means big guns like Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz and Novak Djokovic all remain in contention, while the equally competitive women’s round of 16 sees favorite Aryna Sabalenka remain in the race alongside fellow top seeds Iga Świątek, Madison Keys and Jessica Pegula.
Italian star Jannik Sinner enters the fourth round aiming to win a third consecutive men’s singles title at Melbourne Park.
However, the pick of the fourth round clashes arguably sees Jessica Pegula take on defending champion Madison Keys in an all-American encounter, while Australian No.1 Alex de Minaur is sure to enjoy enthusiastic home support as he takes on current world No.10 Alexander Bublik.
The fourth round of the 2026 Australian Open will take place from Saturday January 24 to Monday January 26 at Melbourne Park in Melbourne. The full round of 16 and remaining tournament schedule can be found below.
The 2026 Australian Open at Melbourne Park will run until January 31 in Melbourne, Australia.
