This year’s Australian Open has had been so jam-packed full of great tennis, shocks and surprises that it hardly seems believable that we’ve already made it to the semi-finals. And as we reach the business end of the tournament, we’ll tell you how you can watch all the tennis action unfold from absolutely anywhere in the world with our handy Australian Open live stream guide below.

The familiar names of Novak Djokovic and Roger Federer head up the men’s odds, while local heroine Ashleigh Barty is now the name in the frame to take the women’s tournament (at the time of writing, at least!).

But something now has to give as Roger and Novak come face-to-face, with the victor facing one of Alexander Zverev and Nadal’s conquerer Dominic Thiem. Barty will need to overcome relatively little-known Sofia Kenin, while the Garbine Muguruza versus Simona Halep matchup could be an absolute classic in its own right.

The start of the 108th edition of the Aussie Open saw the aforementioned Novak Djokovic and Naomi Osaka defending their titles with the latter falling to the awesome Coco Gauff.

It’s all set for a fantastic last few days of action. Find out how you can live stream Australian Open 2020 tennis action from wherever you are in the world below.
