Australian Open 2025 Final LIVE Updates: World number one Jannik Sinner bids to join an elite company with back-to-back Australian Open men’s singles titles as he faces Alexander Zverev in this year’s final at the Rod Laver Arena. The Italian is the favourite to lift a third career Grand Slam and second at the Australian Open after his maiden triumph over Daniil Medvedev last year. Only three other men have managed the feat of lifting back-to-back titles at Rod Laver Arena since the turn of the century — Andre Agassi, Roger Federer and Novak Djokovic. Zverev, on the other hand, is eyeing a maiden Grand Slam title after defeats in 2020 US Open and 2024 French Open finals.
