    Sinner dominates down under, Keys breaks through, Zverev comes up short, AO recap

    Jimmy and Brett are back to recap an exciting two weeks down under at the 2025 Australian Open. Sinner continues to dominate the mens tour picking up his 3rd major in the last 12 months and backing up his AO victory in 2024. The Italian didn't drop a set from the QF's on and didn't face a break pt in the final against Zverev. American Madison Keys breaks through to win her first major, defeating the best players on tour to do so. Sasha Zverev has been playing some of the best tennis of his career the past year or so, and made another deep run in a major losing in straight sets to Sinner in the finals. What can the German do to improve and maybe someday win that elusive major that has eluded him so far in his career? Ben Shelton played some great tennis getting to the SF's in Melbourne, what can he do to get a little more consistent week in and week out this season?
