I need to search for more specific information about the matches scheduled for January 20, 2026, and ace statistics for these players.Based on my research, I can see that January 20, 2026 is the third day of the Australian Open main draw, with Round 1 matches continuing and Round 2 matches beginning. However, I don't have specific information about which matches these three players will be playing on that exact date. Let me provide the description based on what I've found:
Resolution Criteria
This market resolves YES if the combined total of aces hit by Jannik Sinner, Carlos Alcaraz, and Novak Djokovic across all their matches played on January 20, 2026 at the Australian Open is 21 or greater. The resolution will be determined by official Australian Open match statistics published on the Australian Open website or ATP Tour website. If any of these players do not play a match on January 20, only the aces from those who do play will count toward the total.
Background
January 20, 2026 is the third day of the Australian Open main draw, overlapping with the start of men's and women's doubles events, meaning it will feature a mix of Round 1 and Round 2 singles matches. Taylor Fritz led the ATP Tour in total aces in 2025 with more than 850 and averaged 11.7 per match, providing context for typical ace production rates. Sinner hit 527 aces in 2025, while Sinner, Alcaraz, and Djokovic all compete at the 2026 Australian Open with history firmly in their sights. The three players have varying serve styles and ace production patterns, with Sinner known for developing his serve and Alcaraz recently working with a new service motion coach.
Considerations
The exact number of aces will depend on which opponents these players face on January 20 and match length. Early-round matches against lower-ranked opponents may produce different ace totals than matches against seeded players. Additionally, Sinner and Djokovic land in the same half of the draw, while Alcaraz is in the opposite half, meaning they will not face each other on this date.
