Australian tennis star Alex de Minaur, currently ranked world number six, is preparing for the Australian Open in what he describes as the best condition of his life. The 26-year-old spent time with young players at Melbourne Park as part of a promotion to encourage kids to play tennis, four days before the tournament begins. De Minaur hopes to surpass his best Australian Open result of a quarter-final finish from last year, with additional motivation coming from his upcoming wedding to British tennis player Katie Boulter later this year.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
