James Gray in Melbourne, Calvin Betton in Barnsley and George Bellshaw in London look back at the 2023 Australian Open. Novak Djokovic beat Stefanos Tsitsipas in straight sets and dropped just one set all tournament - is this how he should be playing all the time now? What did Tsitsipas do wrong? Can any of the 1990s kids touch the GOAT generation? Aryna Sabalenka out-hit Elena Rybakina in a three-set final that a chaotic and often lopsided women's draw desperately needed - but will we see them both back here again? Why didn't Iga Swiatek make it? Is Rybakina's coach too negative? Will Calvin actually wear his cowboy hat? We try to make sense of it all, one way or another... LISTENER QUESTIONS Elena Tsourdi asks: "1) What are your thoughts on Medvedev's lacklustre form? Game plan of absorbing power from the BL being read by more opponents?2) What does Swiatek need to change to be more competitive vs big hitters and agrressive returners (Rybakina, Sabalenka, Garcia)? Tim Mason asks: "Thoughts on how much of a lift locker room invincibility gives you please. And what the pack can do to counteract it.... other than winning more?" Gohan asks "If Murray put Berrettini away in 3 sets, and presumably starts the Kokkinakis match with more energy and doesn’t end up going to 5 sets, how far do you think he could’ve gone in the slam, especially with how his quarter of the draw collapsed?" Hanya asks simply: "Match of the tournament?" Sinfoerubelix asks: "How much worse can the atp get?" And finally, Rick Marsonet asks: "What's more upsetting, Rybakina playing from the parking lot for her first few matches, Djoker's rigged draw, Djoker's fake injury or the crazy preferential treatment Djoker received by playing at night every match?!?!"
