World number one Iga Swiatek is out of the Australian Open

World number one Iga Swiatek is out of the Australian Open after being stunned by Czech 19-year-old Linda Noskova in the third round.

The Pole, 22, had looked in control but the highly-rated Noskova fought back to win 3-6 6-3 6-4 on Rod Laver Arena.

In the decider the world number 50’s power rocked Swiatek, who struggled and was hampered by forehand errors.

Noskova will play 19th seed Elina Svitolina or Viktorija Golubic in her first fourth-round match at a major.
