Aus. Open Catch-Up: Round 3 - Osaka gets ousted; Cool Hand Cilic; Berrettini-Alcaraz classic; Felix thrashing; Collins, Cornet & Comebacks

In the latest episode of The Passing Shot, Joel and Kim round up all the biggest talking point Round 3 at the Australian Open, which saw a blockbuster encounter between Naomi Osaka and Amanda Anisimova and Andrey Rublev getting upset by Marin Cilic.

British interest in the singles also faded with Dan Evans losing to Felix Auger-Aliassime whilst there were a series of comebacks from the likes of Aryna Sabalenka, Danielle Collins and Alize Cornet to make their place in Round 4.

Rafael Nadal suffered his blip with a four set win over Karen Khachanov whilst we also had a thrilling encounter between Matteo Berrettini and Carlos Alcaraz where both players showed why they are going to ones to watch for the season ahead.
