Day one of the Australian Open gave tennis fans plenty to talk about with Swiss superstar Roger Federer, world No. 1 Novak Djokovic and local hope Ash Barty both all moving through to the second round.

Barty dropped her first set of the tournament but bounced back and became the only Aussie to win on Monday while fellow homegrown stars Sam Stosur, Andrew Harris, John-Patrick Smith and Lizette Cabrera were all bundled out.
