After Philipp Kohlschreiber, Dustin Brown is the second German tennis professional to be eliminated from the Australian Open in Melbourne.

The former Davis Cup player from Winsen/Aller was defeated by the Portuguese Joao Sousa after 2:51 hours 4:6,3:6,6:4,7:6 (7:4), 1:6. This means that the 33-year-old Brown has still not won a match after his fourth participation in the first Grand Slam of the year.

A total of ten German players had qualified for the main draw in Melbourne. On Tuesday, hopeful Alexander Zverev (Hamburg/No. 4) against Thomas Fabbiano from Italy intervenes in the action. His brother Mischa Zverev (No. 32) is also on duty against Chung Hyeon from South Korea.
