Sabalenka could win her fourth major title at the Australian Open this weekend as she faces Madison Keys in the final. Sinner and Zverev are also still alive in the tournament. Sinner won two majors, including the Australian Open, last year.
Fritz and Paul are currently ranked at career highs of No. 4 and No. 11, respectively. They're still fighting to end the streak of American men not winning a major tournament—the last to do it was Andy Roddick in 2003. Fritz came close at the U.S. Open last year, losing to Sinner in the final.
