The main focus of the tennis photo press is, of course, the airport in Adelaide. There - we reported - the top 3 of the tennis women and men will be quartered, which is not good for everyone . The rest? Has partly already moved into his quarters in Melbourne, and let's say this much: There are certainly inferior hotels.
We looked around on social media for the first feedback from Melbourne.
Landed in Adelaide are: Domi (with buddy Dennis Novak) and Novak Djokovic.
And also the champ from 2009, Rafael Nadal and the 2019 winner Naomi Osaka.
Oh: And Serena too! Although currently no longer among the top 3 in the world.
Simona Halep is particularly pleased that she is allowed to stay in Adelaide: after all, her coach Darren Cahill also lives here.
Some professionals have also settled in Melbourne. Marta Kostyuk, for example, with a direct view of Melbourne Park.
Or Petra Kvitova.
And Vika Azarenka , who thanked for the organization.
Just like Daria Kasatkina, who tried out her bed right away - and seems satisfied.
And Barbora Strycova, who has not forgotten how to pose.
Daniil Medvedev has a room with a view - the Yarra River.
And finally: Elina Svitolina . Which leaves us calm in moving pictures with the thought: Yep, here you can endure it for 14 days.
