Vale Wayne Smith. Big loss for rugby in Australia and sports writing everywhere. Always good value in the press boxes and World Cup shuttle buses. Will miss his warmth, wit and insights. #rip #smithy

[Queensland Reds @Reds_Rugby]

The Queensland Rugby community is mourning the loss of Rugby scribe Wayne Smith who passed away yesterday.

Smithy reported on Rugby for the past 50 years after covering his first QLD match in 1971 against the B&IL at Ballymore.

Our thoughts are with his family. Vale Smithy.

Novak Djokovic won a record-extending 10th Australian Open title on Sunday despite battling an injury that would have forced most players to quit, his coach Goran Ivanisevic said, adding that the world number one kept getting "crazier and crazier". https://t.co/DHaIv5sOGp

Tsitsipas-Sinner has suddenly gone bonkers on RLA. Both players like duelling wizards #AustralianOpen

Another glorious day at the Aussie Open. Positively teeming. #australianopen

@RobBendigo @SharnelleVella From Lansdowne, that’s barely OK. It’s only a 4km trip to heart of Sth Yarra. Luggage has nothing to do with fare…

Rafa dialling up the towel rage to 11. Major rant at chair umpire... Feels like an effort to pump himself up after slumping to 4-1 with double-break in first set against Mackie Mac #AustralianOpen

[Ian Ransom @MyRansomNotes]

Pity the poor ballkids who are Rafa's pre-match attendants... Towel and water demands are incessant, confusing and exhausting....

[Ian Ransom @MyRansomNotes]

@DjokerNole feeling the vibes of nine titles on the Rod Laver Arena court — as opposed to the “get out of my country” vibes from 7/10 Aussies a year ago…. We’ve moved on and have a different enemy now: Russian flags… #cognitivedissonance #AustralianOpen #Djokovic

This is modern Australia -- or at least, the state of Victoria.

Police go unpunished after pepper-spraying and arresting photographers at anti-lockdown protest https://t.co/V3pvDTLrJk

So @DjokerNole did come out for a hit at Melbourne Park on Monday -- not before the usual suspects leapt on the "tournament in doubt" bandwagon #AustralianOpen #Djokovic

Poor Rafa. First the towels, then his racket goes for an unauthorised walk... Finally at 2-1 leading in the fourth, he can't get any water at change of ends. "How is this possible there is no water here??" he asks the chair ump... Fair question. #AustralianOpen #RafaelNadal𓃵

[Ian Ransom @MyRansomNotes]

Brave Brit Jack Draper 4-1 down in third set against Rafa. Trainer working on his right thigh... Looks like Rafa will run away with this one #AustralianOpen #Nadal

Ukraine's number two @marta_kostyuk won't shake hands with any Russian and Belarusian players who won't condemn Russia's war in Ukraine, she told Reuters after winning her first round match at the Australian Open #AustralianOpen #UkraineRussiaWar https://t.co/FictgJC26f

Sleeping giant awakens? Beijing 17-yo Shang Juncheng, youngest player in the men's draw, becomes the first man from China to win an Australian Open match in the Open era, beats Germany's Oscar Otte. Compatriot Li Na blazed the trail here, winning the women's singles in 2014
