This is the first professional face-off between the American Gauff and British Raducanu, who are just 18 and 20 respectively. Yet, they are two of the most promising names on the women's side. 

In 2021, Raducanu won the U.S. Open and became the first British woman to win a Grand Slam singles title since 1977. Gauff has steadily improved her results, reaching her first major singles final at the 2022 French Open. 

This is a marquee match, and it's coming so early in the 2023 Australian Open because Raducanu has struggled somewhat in the past year. She's battled a few minor injuries and split with her coach. Meanwhile, Gauff's ascended the rankings and is one of the favorites to win the year's first Grand Slam.

Aussies will be able to watch the Coco Gauff vs Emma Raducanu live stream on Channel Nine, on its on-demand service 9Now or on Stan Sport.

That's great news wherever you are, because 9Now is available for free; all you need is an Australian postcode. That means Australians who aren't in the country right now will simply need to sign up to a VPN such as ExpressVPN in order to watch all the action as if they were back home.

However, 9Now won't have every single match. If you want to be sure of watching every Australian Open 2023 match, ad-free and in up to 4K resolution, you'll want a subscription to Stan Sport.

Stan costs a very reasonable $20 AUD per month ($10 for a standard subscription and $10 for the Sport add-on). A 30-day FREE trial gives you a taste of the platform — and the good news is that the Sport add-on also has a 7-day FREE trial.
