pWotD Episode 2452: Australian Open Welcome to popular Wiki of the Day where we read the summary of a popular Wikipedia page every day.With 174,914 views on Thursday, 18 January 2024 our article of the day is Australian Open.The Australian Open is a tennis tournament held annually at Melbourne Park in Melbourne, Victoria, Australia. The tournament is the first of the four Grand Slam tennis events held each year, preceding the French Open, Wimbledon, and the US Open. The Australian Open starts in the middle of January and continues for two weeks coinciding with the Australia Day holiday. It features men's and women's singles; men's, women's, and mixed doubles; junior's championships; and wheelchair, legends, and exhibition events. Until 1987, it was played on grass courts, but since then two types of hardcourt surfaces have been used: green-coloured Rebound Ace up to 2007 and blue Plexicushion since 2008. First held in 1905 as the Australasian championships, the Australian Open has grown to become one of the biggest sporting events in the Southern Hemisphere. Nicknamed "the happy slam", the Australian Open is the highest attended Grand Slam event, with more than 902,000 people attending the 2023 tournament. It was also the first Grand Slam tournament to feature indoor play during wet weather or extreme heat with its three primary courts, Rod Laver Arena, John Cain Arena and the refurbished Margaret Court Arena equipped with retractable roofs.The Australian Open features men's and women's singles, men's and women's doubles, mixed doubles, and wheelchair competitions. It is played on hard courts and is known for its fast-paced and aggressive style of play. The tournament has a long history dating back to 1905 and has been held at the Melbourne Park complex since 1988. The Australian Open is a major contributor to the Victorian economy; the 2020 Australian Open injected $387.7 million into the state's economy, while over the preceding decade the Australian Open had contributed more than $2.71 billion in economic benefits to Victoria and generated 1775 jobs for the state, with these jobs being predominantly in the accommodation, hotels, cafés and trade services sectors.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 02:52 UTC on Friday, 19 January 2024.For the full current version of the article, see Australian Open on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm Justin Standard.

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge dieses Mal mit dem Daily Down Under vom sechsten Tag der Australian Open. Andreas und Philipp beginnen bei den Herren in der Night Session. Hier gab es dieses Mal nicht so viel Drama wie an den vorherigen Abenden. Stattdessen kamen Rafael Nadal und Fabio Fognini im lockeren Aufgalopp ins Achtelfinale. Fognini konnte dabei überraschend locker gegen Alex de Minaur gewinnen und Rafael Nadal setzte sich in drei Sätzen gegen Cameron Norrie durch. Nun kommt es zum Aufeinandertreffen mit Geschichte: Fognini und Nadal. Auch Matteo Berrettini gegen Stefanos Tsitsipas verspricht einiges, auch wenn sich der Italiener zum Ende seines Matches gegen Karen Khachanov leicht zu verletzen schien. Tsitsipas gewann ganz locker gegen Mikael Ymer. Auch Andrey Rublev hatte nur wenige Probleme gegen Feliciano Lopez und trifft nun auf Radu Albot. Daniil Medvedev musste sich enorm strecken gegen Filip Krajinovic bevor er im fünften Satz gewinnen konnte. Er trifft nun auf Mackenzie McDonald, der gegen Lloyd Harris gewann. Bei den Damen zog Ash Barty letztlich ohne Probleme ins Achtelfinale ein. Sie setzte sich am Abend gegen Ekaterina Alexandrova durch. Nun geht es für sie gegen Shelby Rogers, die einer der letzten verbliebenen Spielerinnen aus der harten Quarantäne Anett Kontaveit besiegte. Ganz kurzen Prozess machte Elise Mertens mit Belina Bencic. Sie trifft nun auf Karolina Muchova, die 7:5 7:5 gegen Karolina Pliskova gewann. Dabei lag Muchova schon mit 0:5 im zweiten Satz hinten. Ganz eng ging es bei Donna Vekic zu, die einen Matchball gegen Kaia Kanepi abwehren musste bevor sie mit 6:4 im dritten Durchgang gewann. Sie spielt nun gegen Jennifer Brady, die sich gegen die Qualifikantin Kaja Juvan durchsetzte. Ganz locker gewann Jessica Pegula gegen Kristina Mladenovic. Sie spielt im Achtelfinale gegen Elina Svitolina, die ebenfalls in zwei Sätzen gegen Yulia Putintseva siegte

Willkommen zu einem neuen Daily Down Under, dem regelmäßigen Podcast-Update zu den Australian Open. Dieses Mal zu Tag 3. Philipp ist heute nicht dabei, deswegen hat sich Andreas einen Gast aus Österreich dazugeholt. Lukas Zahrer arbeitet beim Standard in Österreich und ist häufiger und gern gesehener Gast im Podcast. Die beiden sprechen als Erstes über den klaren Sieg von Dominicn Thiem gegen Dominik Koepfer. Thiem hat in den ersten beiden Runden etwas Startschwierigkeiten gehabt, konnte sich aber schnell in die Matches hineinspielen und auch das Match gegen Koepfer klar in drei Sätzen gewinnen. Koepfer sprach in der PK davon, dass er noch lernen müsse, seinen Frust besser zu kanalisieren. Alexander Zverev gewann sein Match sehr sicher, während Nick Kyrgios für ein absolutes Highlight sorgte. Unter den grellen Lichtern der John Cain Arena besiegte er nach Abwehr von zwei Matchbällen Ugo Humbert und ließ sich von der Menge tragen. Bei den Frauen gab es einige Überraschungen. Eine noch nicht mit der nötigen Matchhärte ausgestattete Bianca Andreescu verlor klar gegen Su-Wei Hsieh, die es sich in den letzten Jahren zur Angewohnheit gemacht hat, große Spielerinnen aus dem Weg zu räumen. Simona Halep musste sich aus einem tiefen Loch buddeln, während Petra Kvitova gegen Sorana Cirstea ausschied.
