Australian Open 2015 Schedule: Replay TV Coverage, Live Stream for Day 7 Draw

Steven CookJan 25, 2015

The level of play at the 2015 Australian Open is peaking as we move toward the second and final week, which makes catching the action more imperative than before starting with the Day 7 draw.

While some of the more notable names—Roger Federer, Petra Kvitova to name a few—have already been bounced from the tournament, there is plenty of star power still left to see in each day of action. With the likes of Rafael Nadal, Andy Murray, Maria Sharapova and Eugenie Bouchard in action for Day 7, that's certainly the case Sunday.

But although the year's first Grand Slam is must-see stuff for any tennis junkie, catching it live can prove to be a pain for those in the United States. That's especially so for the evening-time matches, which begin at 3 a.m. ET each morning in the U.S.

No. 6 Andy Murray vs. No. 10 Grigor Dimitrov

The first top-10 matchup of the Australian Open is an intriguing one on many fronts, pitting the resurgent No. 6 Andy Murray against 10th-seeded Grigor Dimitrov in a Round 4 battle.

The Great Britain product looks intent on putting his 2014 struggles behind him, starting his action in Melbourne off with a tear. He's taken his opening three matches without dropping a single set, toppling dangerous foes in Marinko Matosevic and Joao Sousa in the process.

Matosevic, his second-round opponent, foresaw a deep tourney run for Murray after his defeat, per Bwin:

While Murray has looked incredibly fluid and fast with his movement and appears to be peaking with each and every match, he figures to have his hands full with Dimitrov.

Unlike his counterpart, though, the Bulgarian has endured his struggles already in this year's Australian Open. His first win was in straight sets, but a four-set win followed before he was pushed to five sets in Round 3.

It won't be Dimitrov's recent play that looms large on Murray's mind, but rather the last time they met in a Slam. That came in last year's Wimbledon, when Dimitrov ousted then-defending-champion Murray in the quarterfinals in three dominant sets.

But even Dimitrov knows that he should expect a much different and much more dangerous Murray in Melbourne.

"That day it was not him out there. I think we all know that," Dimitrov told BBC Sport's Piers Newbery. "You hardly ever see top players feel really flat early on in a match. It's a different scenario this time."

Murray was hard at work in his off day looking to rectify his previous loss to Dimitrov, per the Australian Open:

All throughout his opening three matches, Murray showed the world of tennis that he's more capable than ever of making a deep run in a Slam. But it will all be for naught if he doesn't exact revenge against Dimitrov for what happened last year at the All England Club.

Considering Murray got back to his winning ways against Dimitrov already at the 2014 Paris Masters and the contrasting forms of both players, the Brit's chances should be favored.
