laver arena behind me, 5— three up against nishioka ofjapan. men's singles. we have roger federer to come a little later on againstjohn millman, who is an australian, so there will be a packed house in rod laver arena behind me, around 15,000 crowding in for the last match in the evening session on the main show court here. it is so hard to pick. we have seen serena williams go today, but you have roger federer, rafael nadal and novak djokovic still in the men's draw. will anyone pipped them to the title this year? we keep saying when will the young players breakthrough? we can see why, because novak djokovic has been really impressive once again in the opening set of his third round match. i am very jealous, you have the weather with you, great tennis to watch for the rest of the day. enjoy it and have a good weekend. thank you. and tell me what you think about our talking point today. the cashless society. one in ten transactions will be cashless... one in ten will be cash by 2028. it is disappearing from society. how do you feel about that?

so what a lineup in the opening day on the rod laver arena. looking pretty good. and as we know, all eyes, as it always is, on serena williams to see whether or not she can win this elusive 24th grand slam title which would pull her level with margaret court's all—time record. those probably the two big names to account for in the women's draw. ash barty as well, the world number one, she is in action later on in the evening session on rod laver. roger federer, novak djokovic and nadal also in action. always talking about the so—called big three, aren't we, in the men's draw? we just wait to see whether or not any of those sort of younger players will come through to challenge them this year. but novak djokovic the defending champion in the men's singles and arguably will be the favourite to go on and win what would be a record extending eighth australian open title, if he can do so come the end of this fortnight. the private american aerospace company spacex has been conducting a trial with nasa of its plans to take astronauts to the internat

and just to let you know, serena williams is about to head out onto rod laver arena.updates. but from around the rest of the team. goodbye. hello. for much of england, wales and southern scotland, it's a cold and frosty start to monday. also some problems with fog, particularly across wales, north—west england and the midlands. we have already seen some poor visibility in places through the first part of the night. another thing of note is that the pressure reading across parts of wales has exceeded 1050 millibars and is continuing to rise. that's the highest it's been since 1957. this area of high—pressure is the dominant feature in the week ahead, bringing a lot of dry weather. this frontal system will bring some outbreaks of rain into northern scotland later on monday. but we start monday, for many, cold, frosty, temperatures as low as —6 or —7 across parts of southern england. close to freezing for northern england, southern scotland and northern ireland. eight or nine for the far north of scotland. and for scotland and northern ireland, monday is a cloudy, breezy

and finally, last up on the rod laver arena, novak djokovic will be in action djokovic also a defending champion in the men's singles. a bumper schedule for the main show court where the roof is open because we have early in sunshine here today in contrast, in stark contrast to what we saw player yesterday. the sun lounge in the background gives it away. it will be different in the evening session as well because it is about the future of women's tennis for the first game at rob lever this evening. i do wonder when we see naomi osaka 15—year—old coco gauff how many grand slam totals will these two have between them come the end of their careers. osaka looking relaxed in contrast to what we saw player last year when she won her maiden grand slam title, her maiden australian open title here. she is looking relaxed and she loves playing against coco gauff. there is a lot of respect between the two. coco gauff introducing herself to the world when she made a brilliant run at wimbledon last year. they met at the us open last year and it was osaka who came out on top. it will be fascinating t

laver coups in the have long been regulars in that category and this season is proving no exception on their day they can beat anyone by and in munich included but they've been plagued by inconsistency. just in we're actually very good position from my close friends and even after losing a few games we shouldn't have been in. how much the jewel in level couzens attacking crown himself still sometimes subject to the vagaries of youth but undoubtedly one of germany's most gifted talents caught. up and there's a lot of good teams who can get right in the top and mix it with certainly one of the month after month off and felt in 6th place at midway and just 2 points off 4th . and dame there's freiburg there's no pressure on them so might europe but they've done it before and wouldn't be invested doing it again. just some strides. coach has just life has all the necessary know how to chime in dealing from. i burst into a hellish cauldron for any visiting seeing the newspapers and i have a tried and tested finisher though everyone is happy to contribute in this most genuine collectives. yet

and later — under the lights on rod laver arena — it's the first of the men's semi—finals, between rogero football — liverpool are now 19 points clear at the top of the english premier league, after winning 2—nil at west ham on wednesday. jurgen klopp's side have now gone 41 league games without defeat — stretching back to last january. alastair bruce—ball was watching. liverpool nowhere near their best but still too good for west ham. took the lead ten minutes before halftime. the referee pointed to the spot and salah tucked away. the next goal on the counter—attack as west ham were threatening from a corner. they are the best team in the premier league by a country mile and it's not going to be too long i don't think until they clench this premier league title. 2—0 liverpool. we just have to carry on, we will carry on and 70 things can happen at last. stop it's interesting, it can catch over there but it's just not decided and that's why we don't feel like it's already done. nobody stands there, it's played that game and after the game, it's like, take and after the game, it's like, ta

we will be seeing her on rod laver arena. the women's draw always seems to be so much more open. look at the men, roger federer won in 2004 and since then the big three, fedorov, rafael nadal and novak djokovic have won every year except 2005 and 2014. do you see any other difference this year beside one of those big three winning? be honest. if you're going look at players, i guess maybe tsitsipas, he had a great run last year. medvedev is the big—name people are looking out for when you consider he pushed rafael nadal close in the us open. i think they will be the players you look towards. but when novak djokovic arrived here in australia he seems to play his best tennis and it will be hard to look be on those three once again this year. at 38, roger federer, perhaps, people were wondering if he was suffering because of the lack of tennis. i did not play much in the atp. novak djokovic as well, he has been brilliant and won the atp cup with serbia playing some brilliant tennis. it could be a record extending eighth australian open title this year. let's hear from roger federer
