Five Canadians are competing in Melbourne at the Australian Open for the first Grand Slam of the year.
On the men's side, No. 13 Denis Shapovalov, No. 20 Felix Auger-Aliassime, No. 32 Milos Raonic and Vasek Pospisil all received main draw bids to represent Canada. The lone competitor on the women's side is 17-year-old Leylah Annie Fernandez, who was forced to make her way out of the qualifying bracket with three consecutive straight-set wins.

Canadian superstar and reigning U.S. Open champion Bianca Andreescu announced on Jan. 11 that she would not compete in the Australian Open as she continues to rehab a knee injury she suffered at the WTA Finals in Shenzen on Oct. 30.
Shapovalov has been open about his concerns about the air quality in Australia after the country's recent massive wildfires, saying he would withdraw if it becomes an unsafe environment. Auger-Aliassime is determined to crack the top 10 in 2020 but recognizes that the No. 1 objective is to stay healthy.
