The Australian Open Men’s Championship will be decided live late tonight (early Sunday morning) on ESPN, ESPN Deportes and ESPN+ starting at 3:30 a.m. ET, when No. 3 Stefanos Tsitsipas of Greece meets No. 4 Novak Djokovic of Serbia. Neither Djokovic nor Tsitsipas has lost so far in 2023.

Tsitsipas is bidding to win his first Grand Slam title in his second appearance in a Grand Slam final. At 24, he would become the first Greek player to win a Grand Slam title and the youngest man to win the Australian Open title since 2011 when Djokovic took the prize.

Victory for Djokovic would see him equal Nadal’s all-time record for the most Grand Slam men’s singles titles, including a record-extending 10th Australian Open men’s singles title.

Battle for World Men’s No. 1

For the 2nd consecutive Grand Slam men’s singles final, the winner is guaranteed to become world No. 1 when the new rankings are published on Monday. Tsitsipas will become the 29th player to be ranked No. 1 since the introduction of the ATP rankings in 1973 if he wins tonight. Djokovic will begin his 374th week as world No. 1 if he wins tonight, extending his record for most weeks as world No. 1.

The loser this evening will be ranked at No. 3 on Monday – for Tsitsipas, this would equal his career-high ranking; for Djokovic, this would be his highest ranking since June last year. Current world No. 1 Carlos Alcaraz will drop to No. 2 tomorrow regardless of the outcome of tonight’s match.

Chris Fowler, John McEnroe and Patrick McEnroe will call the match with Darren Cahill reporting courtside.
