2018 Australian Open: Bracket, schedule, and results for women’s draw

The 2018 Australian Open is a thing of the past, with Caroline Wozniacki, the second seed, winning her first ever Grand Slam title. Wozniacki is the first woman from Denmark to win a Grand Slam singles title, and she did it with a three-set victory over Simona Halep, the top seed and someone who also was searching for her first Grand Slam win.

Last year’s tournament ended with an all-Williams Sisters final, and on the men’s side, it was a final between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, just like old times. This year’s tournament featured some of the biggest names to not win a Grand Slam yet, and the biggest were Halep and Wozniacki.

It was a thrilling match, one that Halep actually held the edge in many of the major stats, but Wozniacki ultimately came out on top, 7-6(2), 3-6, 6-4.

Below is a full bracket, schedule, and results, which were updated daily throughout the tournament.

The Australian Open can be tricky to follow for those in the United States. Play at the Australian Open begins on Monday proper in Melbourne but on Sunday evening in the United States. Play will typically wrap up in the early morning of the following day in the U.S. but later in the evening on that day in Melbourne.

ESPN will handle television coverage of the tournament between its flagship network and ESPN2, and live streams of all men’s and women’s singles matches will be available live via WatchESPN.
