Rinky Hijikata and Jason Kubler earned a remarkable victory at the ongoing Australian Open 2023, where the wild cards brushed past top seeds Wesley Koolhof and Neal Skupski 6-3, 6-1 to reach the men's doubles semi-finals. In the match, Hijikata and Kubler didn't come up against a break point and won four of their ten break opportunities against a team who won seven ATP Tour titles in 2022.
