Much drama in Melbourne today, Nigel Sears collapsed while watching Ivanovic. Andy Murray left the court immediately after his match to head for the hospital. Hope he'll be OK.
In happier news Jo Konta became the first British woman to reach the 4th round of the AO since 1987 (although she's really more Aussie than Brit)
In the men's draw Raonic is looking very strong. If Murray or Djokovic don't win the title I reckon he's the most likely to lift the trophy.

Raonic will still have to get through 2014 champion Stan Wawrinka tomorrow, a tough enough task as it is.
If he does that, he has a good shot at getting further, up to the semis.
Obviously Raonic has one of the biggest and best serves in the game, but the likes of Murray and Djoker are great returners, and eventually will pick him apart imo.
Novak is a tennis machine. No reason to believe that he does not dominate 2016...and this years AO. Federer was about the only guy that could beat him in 2015.
Even Federer said that Roanic has improved a lot recently. It seems that Roanic and Nishikori is ready to step into the Big 4 spots when in a couple of years.

Two key things here to provide context:
1) Sears is Ana Ivanovic's coach.
2) Sears is Andy Murray's father-in-law (and obviously the father of Kim Sears, Murray's long-time girlfriend and now wife).
I haven't heard anything negative, so it sounds like Nigel Sears is doing okay. I'm glad that's the case. It should be noted that if Sears wasn't improving, Murray said he would have withdrawn from the tournament. I have to give Murray some major kudos for being willing to do that (and there's no doubt in my mind that wasn't just talk from Murray).
Ironically, if Kim Sears wasn't getting close to giving birth to her and Andy's first child, she probably would have been at the Australian Open.
