Swiatek vs Raducanu live streams
Iga Swiatek and Emma Raducanu are set to do battle in the third round of the 2025 Australian Open. Both Grand Slam winners in their own right, they'll open things up on the Rod Laver Arena Down Under today at 11.30am (that's 12.30am GMT in the UK and 7.30pm ET / 4.30pm PT in the US). The Australian Open is FREE to watch on 9Now in Australia and you can use a VPN to watch Swiatek vs Raducanu live streams from anywhere if you're away.

Swiatek will go into the match as hot favorite. Seeded second, she has so far steamrollered Katerina Siniakova and Rebecca Sramková, losing only two games against the latter. Aged 23, the Australian Open is a blip on a CV that boasts four French Open titles and one US. On the opposite side of the draw to the mighty Aryna Sabalenka and playing superbly, Swiatek will see this year as her big chance to at least make it all the way to next Saturday's final.
A year Swiatek's junior, Raducanu is still out to prove that her extraordinary 2021 US Open win wasn't a career anomaly. The Brit has had well reported troubles with injuries (and coaches) since her breakout glory, but has seemed more settled in Melbourne this year, already knocking out the seeded Ekaterina Alexandrova and good friend Amanda Anisimova – both in straight sets.
A win today against Swiatek would be a huge statement for Raducanu, but also a huge upset; the Pole has won 2-0 each of the three previous times these two have played.
