MELBOURNE (Reuters) - Not many would have bet on unseeded Americans Danielle Collins and Frances Tiafoe making it to the Australian Open quarter-finals but the duo won their respective fourth-round matches to make it a 'Super Sunday' for their country in Melbourne.

Tiafoe is the sole American left in the men's draw but the women's side could be set for a rich representation with Grand Slam winners Serena Williams and Sloane Stephens and 2017 U.S. Open finalist Madison Keys still to play in the fourth round.
