Rain halts Australian Open play, but covered courts keep the action going. Cameron Norrie, on the cusp of victory, had to wait as the heavens opened up. The British tennis star was three points away from winning the fourth-set tiebreak against Emilio Nava. But the downpour meant he had to pause and wait for the court to be dried. Three other men's singles matches were also suspended, but quickly resumed on courts with retractable roofs. Home favorite Alex de Minaur, Frances Tiafoe, and Alexander Zverev were among those who continued their matches under the roof. The Australian Open organizers' quick thinking and the covered courts ensured that the tennis action didn't have to stop completely, even in the face of heavy rain. But Norrie's match remained on hold, and he had to wait patiently for the court to be ready again. Will he be able to close out the match and secure his victory? Stay tuned as the rain-paused Australian Open continues with more thrilling tennis action.
