Jason Kubler and Rinky Hijikata vs Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos Australian Open Semi Final
Jason Kubler and Rinky Hijikata have continued their fairytale run at the Australian Open after a stunning straight-sets win in their men's doubles semi-final on Thursday. The Aussie tag-team already knocked off the top-seeded pairing of Wesley Koolhof and Neal Skupski in the quarter-finals and added another major scalp in a superb upset win in the last-four.
They may not have generated the same sort of buzz as compatriots Nick Kyrgios and Thanasi Kokkinakis did on their way to the Australian Open doubles title last year, but Kubler and Hijikata have a golden chance to emulate the 'Special Ks' after beating eighth-seeded pair Marcel Granollers and Horacio Zeballos 6-4, 6-2. Remarkably, the local duo are the fifth all-Aussie pairing to play in the men's doubles semi-finals in the last seven years.
