Day 15: Alcaraz dethrones the king! Djokovic's last AO? Big call on Rybakina
A new era! Carlos Alcaraz has rewritten the history books as the youngest man to achieve the career Grand Slam, and the first person to defeat Novak Djokovic in an Australian Open final. Alexia Mitchell and Brett Thomas are joined by tennis commentator Peter Marcato to unpack the historic match, and weigh in on the future of both men’s careers. We take a look back on the 2026 Australian Open, and make our bold predictions for 2027, including the next step for Elena Rybakina. Plus, AO Radio’s Nat Edwards recaps the women's champion's victory over Aryna Sabalenka on Day 14, alongside former player Jill Craybas. Check out Pod Laver Arena every day of the AO.
