Australian Open Final LIVE RESULTS: Latest updates from the Melbourne event

*Sinner 2-3 Medvedev

A nice grab from Sinner, who might have only had one or two butterflies when losing the opening point in this game.

Four consecutive points mean he has half the deficit in this set.

The last serving along the T is what we have come to expect from the Italian. Medvedev is an excellent returner and knows how to make contact but sends it on for a long time.

A love grab. Emphatically from Russian.

That included a neat volley at the net, with a good range of attacking shots on display early on.

* Sinner 1-2 Medvedev

BREAK OF SERVICE!

Daniil Medvedev breaks in the third game – and it's only the third time in this tournament that Sinner has lost serve!

Medvedev races to a 0-40 lead, benefits from two second serves and is extremely aggressive on both.

Sinner reduces the deficit making the score 15-40, but can't do anything as he stands at the net and faces a Medvedev forehand that Sinner reaches but can't answer across the net.

Sinner 1-1 Medvedev*

From a strong position, with two aces and winning the first long rally of the match, Medvedev made a double fault at 40-15 to let Sinner in.

He also finds the net on the next point and takes us to deuce in his first service game of the match.

Sinner's forehand clips the top of the net at deuce, but remains perfectly upright for Medvedev's forehand, which he whips away for a winner.

Then Sinner is taken out by a ferocious serve to his side, and he can't return. Serve held.
