Aston villa against arsenal was been postponed because of a frozen pitch at the banks� s stadium. Some of tennis� biggest names made it through to the quarterfinals of the Australian Open today including serena williams, simona halep and naomi osaka. In the mens draw, there was a shock for one of the favourites though, whilst the world number one Novak Djokovic had to dig deep to reach the last eight. With the best of the action heres joe lynskey. Novak djokovic strains and stretches for every ball which is why he wins so many titles, but it can be his downfall. He said he would have retired from this tournament were it not a grand slam but he he was winning again apparently half fit. Djokovic had his side in the last match. But he could still get around the court. Milos raonic is a and his big serve got back into the game but then djokovic got back on top of it. He took the third set to go back in front and having being pegged back now, he was in his stride. He has beaten raonic in all of his meetings. There are still concerns about his body but he has a champion� s mind. When there are rows of blue seats, defeat in melbourne feels empty. Dominic thiem was going for Grandstand Title number two but was well beaten. Grand slam title. Dimitrov did not reach the quarters in any major last year but was ruthless. He won in straight sets. He was thiem was runner up here two years ago. He was runner up here two years ago. He was asked how it could have gone wrong so quickly. I am not a machine. Wrong so quickly. Iam not a machine. Sometimes wrong so quickly. I am not a machine. Sometimes i would like to be. But there are really bad days. Would like to be. But there are reall bad da 5. , but there are really bad days. Naomi osaka showed but there are really bad days. Naomi osaka showed she but there are really bad days. Naomi osaka showed she was but there are really bad days. Naomi osaka showed she was only but there are really bad days. Naomi osaka showed she was only human. | but there are really bad days. Naomi osaka showed she was only human. She faced two match points but saved herself. Deep in the decider, she broke twice in a row. And into the quarterfinals. She is going for grand slam four. How far she was pushed shows where the womens draw is now, every player left is a contender and nothing is easy. Simona halep came from a set down against a teenager. She held on to her break in the decider and now has another battle, serena. She also dropped a set but found a way through. The fans could be back in a few days but now they play on in silence and try to work out how to celebrate. One man who wanted to be playing in melbourne is andy murray he missed out after issues with quarantine following his positive covid result instead hes been playing in the atp challenger in biella, italy, where today hes been beaten in the final. This is not a computer game, i promise you it was murrays first event of the year but he lost in straight sets 6 2 6 4 to Illya Marchenko from ukraine.

Our weather is going to turn increasingly mild over the next 2a hours, but as it does so, weve got some rain and some strong winds to come from this area of low pressure. This hook of cloud just going past Northern Ireland will bring some particularly strong winds, i think, to the hebrides in western scotland, where gusts of wind will probably reach about 75 mph, so there is the risk of some disruption here from the strong winds. Outbreaks of rain and fairly windy conditions, though, with us for most areas of the uk as we go into this evening, and indeed overnight, those winds will very slowly ease down. There will be further showers later in the night for Northern Ireland and western scotland. And its going to be a mild night ive not said that for many weeks 4 10 celsius, Something Like that. Monday starts off on a rather damp note across east anglia and south east england, with some rain slow to clear away. Showers follow to Northern Ireland, north of both england and wales, and across scotland. There will probably be quite a bit of cloud around, maybe a few mist and hill fog patches, but it will be mild. This is bbc news.
