SEVEN COMMENTARY TEAM JIM COURIER Jim Courier’s name is synonymous with the Australian Open and Melbourne Park. From his celebratory jump into the Yarra River after winning his two titles, to his always entertaining and informative expert analysis, Courier has been a popular feature of Seven’s broadcast since 2005. Jim won 23 career titles in all, including two Australian Opens (1992, 1993) and two French Opens (1991, 1992). He also spent 58 weeks as the top-ranked player in the world, having first ascended there aged 21.

LLEYTON HEWITT Two-time Grand Slam winner and 2005 Australian Open finalist Lleyton Hewitt returns to the Seven commentary box. He will again balance playing and commentary commitments as he returns to the doubles, however viewers will again be treated to some of the most insightful and current thinking on the game today. TODD WOODBRIDGE Todd Woodbridge has earned a reputation as a forthright and insightful commentator, both as the host of Seven’s Wimbledon coverage and an integral member of Seven’s summer of tennis. As a player he was best known as one half of The Woodies, alongside Mark Woodforde. Together they won every Grand Slam title as well as the Olympic Games gold medal in Atlanta in 1996. All up, they won 61 career doubles titles, making them the most successful doubles team in men’s tennis history. SAM SMITH Sam Smith turned an impressive career as a player into an outstanding one as a broadcaster. A former No.1 British women’s player, Sam has been a member of the Eurosport, Sky Sports, BBC Radio, BBC TV and Seven tennis commentary teams. Sam came to the Australian Open for the first time as a 15-year-old in 1988 to play juniors at Melbourne Park in its first year of operation – a trip she credits with inspiring her to become a tennis pro. MEL MCLAUGHLIN Mel McLaughlin takes on hosting roles for Seven’s Summer of Tennis across the Sydney International and Australian Open. Mel is the sports presenter for 7 News Sydney and has covered many major sporting events on the world stage including the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, Olympic Winter Games, FIFA World Cup and Glasgow 2014 Commonwealth Games. JOHN NEWCOMBE The former World No. 1 is a legend of Australian tennis who had an imposing 45-14 win loss record at the Australian Open, winning the men’s singles in 1973 and 1975. He also collected five Australian Open doubles titles. Since his retirement he has carved out a successful media career as a tennis commentator and analyst, most notably at Wimbledon.

JOHN FITZGERALD John’s Fitzgerald’s memories of the Australian Open stretch back to Kooyong where he won a doubles title in 1982. As a player, his greatest achievements came during 11 years in the Davis Cup – including playing a major role in Australia defeating Sweden in the 1983 and 1986 finals. John was also Australia’s top ranked player, played in two Olympics, won six ATP Tour singles titles, 30 doubles titles (including seven Grand Slam titles) and received the Order of Australia Medal in 1993.

JIM WILSON Jim Wilson is the sports editor for 7 News in Sydney and Seven’s afternoon news bulletin. As a journalist Jim has covered some of the most significant sporting events of recent times such as Olympic Games, the British Open golf, South African and West Indian cricket tours, World Cup soccer, NRL State of Origin, AFL Grand Finals and most recently hosted the 2017 Rugby League World Cup. Jim has been part of the Seven Sports team since 1992 in Brisbane, Melbourne and Sydney.

HAMISH MCLACHLAN Hamish McLachlan comes from a strong sporting background with management and broadcast experience in sports including AFL, Olympics, tennis and cricket. Over the past nine years Hamish has hosted Channel 7’s AFL Game Day alongside some of the biggest names in the game including Leigh Matthews, Matthew Richardson and Tim Watson. Hamish has also featured in Channel 7’s Melbourne Cup Carnival racing coverage and Australian Open tennis. BASIL ZEMPILAS Basil Zempilas is an acclaimed TV host, reporter and commentator, having covered AFL for almost 25 years as well as calling at six Olympic Games – including the Rio 2016 Olympic Games and the famous Steven Bradbury’s ‘Last Man Standing’ Winter Olympics victory.

GIAAN ROONEY Giaan Rooney joined Seven in December 2012 to take on a wide-ranging role reporting across events including the Australian Open and Spring Racing. Giaan is an Olympic gold medalist and former world record holder who retired from competitive swimming in 2006 to focus on a career in the media.

HENRI LECONTE After a stunning debut in the commentary box in 2010 as a special guest, Henri Leconte has entertained audiences with his flair and energy ever since. As a player he reached two Grand Slam singles semi-finals at the French Open and Wimbledon in 1986, and attained his career-high singles ranking of No 5. In 1988, he reached the men's singles final at the French Open. Henri retired from the tour in 1996 with nine career singles titles and 10 doubles titles.

ROGER RASHEED Roger has seen the best of tennis from all angles. Roger was 16 when he became the youngest player to qualify for the men’s singles in his home Grand Slam, a record later broken by Lleyton Hewitt, who Roger went on to coach. Under Roger, Lleyton rose to No.2, and played in two Grand Slam finals. Roger has coached several current players on tour including Gael Monfils and Grigor Dimitrov. RENNAE STUBBS Rennae Stubbs won four Grand Slam doubles titles, two Grand Slam mixed doubles titles and represented Australia at three successive Olympic Games, but it’s her Australian Open triumph in 2000 which she holds dearest. Rennae also recorded more double triumphs than any other Australian woman – a remarkable 60 WTA Tour titles.
