- Cult favourite to make main draw debut on John Cain Arena
- Australia’s male singles contingent the biggest since 1998
Lleyton Hewitt doppelganger Dane Sweeny is set to become a crowd favourite at John Cain Arena when he makes his Australian Open debut.
Sweeny has developed his own cult following due to his uncanny likeness to former world No 1 Hewitt, and the 22-year-old Queenslander is expected to attract a large crowd to the indoor arena, which is open to fans with a ground pass.
