Rebecca and Chris Judd endured an awkward moment while enjoying the action on Sunday at the first day of the Australian Open.

The Melbourne power couple were sitting courtside at Melbourne Park as guests of champagne brand Piper-Heidseck.

They were sat next to former Mongols bikies boss turned influencer Toby Mitchell, who seemed very happy to be next to the Judds.

Mitchell shared a photo to his more than 300,000 Instagram followers and while Chris obliged and looked at the camera, Bec chose not to and looked down at her phone.

Bec wrote on Instagram: “Thank you @piper_heidsieck for a terrific night at the @australianopen tennis. The on-court seats were such a treat.”

The Judds weren’t the only famous Melbourne faces spotted at the Australian Open as the first grand slam of the year got underway this week.

Fellow influencer Nadia Bartel also attended alongside her new partner Peter Bugmore, with the pair sharing a kiss in the stands at Rod Laver Arena.

Also in attendance in Tennis Australia’s VIP area were former Formula One driver Mark Webber, Eddie McGuire, Brooke Warner and Collingwood players Darcy Moore and Mason Cox.

It’s been an eventful start to the Australian Open, with Novak Djokovic challenged by 18-year-old Dino Prizmic, while Alex de Minaur is through to the second round after Milos Raonic retired from their first round match with injury.

Aussie Alexei Popyrin will take on Djokovic in the second round, while other local hopes Jordan Thompson, Chris O’Connell and Storm Hunter have also won their first round matches.
