Home favourite Alex De Minaur stepped out of Nick Kyrgios's shadow and stormed into the last 16 of the Australian Open on Saturday as fifth seed Aryna Sabalenka continued to bulldoze her way through the women's draw.
Czech fans at Melbourne Park savoured double delight as 17-year-old Linda Fruhvirtova burst into the spotlight by joining former world number one Karolina Pliskova in the fourth round.
Sabalenka's emotions have often got the better of her but the big-hitting Belarusian said being "boring" was working for her. A quarter-finalist two years ago, Rublev had unleashed on the chair umpire in his previous match after being warned for an audible obscenity. Twice major finalist Pliskova missed last year's tournament after breaking her arm in a freak gym accident but victory over 23rd seed Zhang would continue the tall Czech's resurgence following her quarter-final run at Flushing Meadows.
