Former world No. 1 Novak Djokovic, Lorenzo Musetti and Ben Shelton all clinched easy straight-sets victories in their second round match of the Australian Open on the fifth day of the first Grand Slam of the season.

While Djokovic defeated qualifier Francesco Maestrelli 6-3, 6-2, 6-2 at the Rod Laver Arena, Musetti overcame Lorenzo Sonego 6-3, 6-3, 6-4 in the opening session at the Margaret Court Arena. Shelton, also facing a qualifier in Dane Sweeny, registered a victory at the John Cain Arena with a scoreline exactly similar to Djokovic's.
