What a roller coaster of a match this was at the 2025 Australian Open! After withdrawing from the Adelaide quarterfinals in 2025 with a shoulder injury, it was great to see Thanasi Kokkinakis bounce back strongly and get the win in front of his home crowd.
Kokkinakis, the home crowd favorite, had to overcome an early setback as he dropped the opening set 3-6 to his Russian opponent. But the resilient Australian dug deep, taking the next two sets 6-3, 6-3 to turn the match around.
The fourth set was a tense and tightly contested affair, with both players pushing each other to the limit. But it was Kokkinakis who kept his composure, edging out Safiullin in the tiebreaker 7-6(2) to seal the victory.
This was a true roller coaster of a match, showcasing Kokkinakis' remarkable fighting spirit and determination. After a disappointing withdrawal from the 2025 Adelaide quarterfinals due to injury, the Australian star has clearly bounced back stronger than ever.
