World No.2 Daniil Medvedev may be the favourite for the Norman Brookes Challenge Cup, but he's been handed the second round draw from hell with the Melbourne crowd eating out of Nick Kyrgios' hands. The biggest personality in tennis has already provided an entire highlights reel of entertainment and will doubtless fire up the home crowd when the match gets underway at 8am this morning. Read on as we explain how to watch Australian Open tennis online and get a Kyrgios vs Medvedev live stream wherever you are – including ways to see the match absolutely FREE.
If Medvedev thought the US Open crowd was hostile when he beat Djokovic in the final last summer…
Kyrgios has been working the local crowd into a frenzy all week with his on-court antics, which have so far included outrageous underarm between-leg serves, Cristiano Ronaldo-esque celebrations and swigging beer from the stands, and he's going to need every trick in the book to get past the big-serving Russian.
Liam Broady got the full Kyrgios experience in his straight-sets defeat, revealing afterwards that fans were sledging him throughout. Medvedev has a thicker skin than most, but he's going to have every single fan on his back from the moment he steps out onto Rod Laver Arena.
This may well be one of the moments of the entire tournament, so watch all the drama unfold as it happens by following our Kyrgios vs Medvedev live stream guide to watch Australian Open 2022 tennis online today.
