Rybakina advances with dominant display at Australian Open

Melbourne, Jan 14 (UNI) Sixth seed Elena Rybakina made a commanding start to her Australian Open 2025 campaign with a comprehensive 6-1, 6-1 victory over Australian wildcard Emerson Jones in just 53 minutes on Margaret Court Arena.
Rybakina, a finalist at the tournament in 2023, showcased her formidable serve, averaging 174 km/h, and overwhelmed her 16-year-old opponent with 26 winners here on Tuesday.
