Aus Open: Outdoor Matches Suspended As Temperatures Hit 36°C
The Australian Open: The Australian Open's main showcourts at Melbourne Park had their roofs closed, and outdoor-court matches were suspended on Saturday under the tournament's extreme heat policy.
With temperatures soaring to 36°C (96.8°F), tournament officials prioritized player safety due to the intense heat during Saturday's events.
The Australian Open has a strict policy for extreme heat that grades four weather factors: air temperature, radiant heat, wind speed, and humidity. When conditions reach level 5, officials suspend play and close the roofs. To assist fans during these extremes, the tournament advises staying hydrated, wearing hats, and using misting fans inside the stadium.
