    A Russian teenager has stolen the show at the Australian tennis Open


    Sixteen-year-old Mirra Andreeva has upset sixth seed Ons Jabeur in the second round, with a 6-love, 6-2 demolition job.

    To get an idea of Andreeva's youth, the world number 47 has shared her distaste for education while on tour.



    Former world number Caroline Wozniacki has also been ousted in the second round, while in the men's draw, fourth seed Jannick Sinner has cruised through to the third round after a straight sets win.
