Nadal won the 2022 edition of the Australian Open after beating Danil Medvedev in the summit clash.

While Nadal cruised to the second round of the Australian Open, Nick Kyrgios quit through injury without hitting a ball. In the women’s draw, top seed Iga Swiatek survived a tough examination while Jessica Pegula and teenage prodigy Coco Gauff were both emphatic winners on the first day of action.
