Teenage tennis stars Iva Jovic and Victoria Mboko are leading the charge in Melbourne, making a name for themselves at the Australian Open.

Their impressive run is being watched by fans around the world.

In the women's singles, Mboko has been playing aggressive tennis, "taking control" of points and dominating her opponents. Her victory over seventh seed Jasmine Paolini was a testament to this style, as she bulldozed through the opponent in straight sets after coming from behind.

Jovic, on the other hand, has been showing impressive form herself, using her experience to outlast her opponent in the second-set tie-break against Paolini. She also hails praise for advice received from 24-time Grand Slam champion Novak Djokovic, who she spoke with just before the match.

Meanwhile, their doubles partnership is also making waves, as they prepare to face off against fourth seeds Elise Mertens and Zhang Shuai in the second round. The duo's success has been met with excitement from tennis fans, who are eager to see more of these talented young players make an impact on the sport.

OMG, I'm so hyped for Iva and Victoria!!! 🀩 They're literally killing it at the Aussie Open πŸ˜‚. I mean, Mboko's aggressive style is insane πŸ”₯, she just smashes her opponents on court πŸ’ͺ!

I'm low-key obsessed with these two youngins right now 🀩 I mean, Iva and Victoria are literally killing it on the court! Their styles are so different, but both bringing something unique to the game. Mboko's aggression is infectious, and she's clearly got some serious skills πŸ’ͺ. Meanwhile, Jovic's experience is shining through, and her advice from Novak Djokovic is really paying off πŸ™. Can't wait to see how they hold up against Elise Mertens and Zhang Shuai in the doubles... might just be a matchup for the ages πŸ”₯
 
I mean, who wouldn't want to watch two 17- & 16-year-olds dominate on the tennis court? I'm sure it's super inspiring for everyone under 30 watching from home πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ. Mboko's aggressive style is just what we all need more of - I mean, who needs subtlety in sports anymore, right? And Jovic's advice from Djokovic sounds like a total coincidence... or maybe she just has some secret talent that's been hidden until now πŸ™„. Anyway, it'll be fun to see how long these young stars can keep up the pace - hopefully not too soon before they're too old to be cute πŸ˜‚
 
I think Iva Jovic's experience is actually holding her back πŸ€”... like, she's 17 but she's been playing tennis since she was like 5 or something? That's a lot of pressure and it's making her play too safe? 🏸 On the other hand, Victoria Mboko's aggressive style is actually kinda intimidating 😲, I mean, who expects to lose in straight sets against someone so dominant? 🀯 But at the same time... maybe that's not fair because she was down a set and still managed to come back? πŸ€”... Ugh, I don't know what's going on with my mind right now πŸ˜‚.
 
I'm loving this underdog story 🀩🎾! Mboko and Jovic are proving that age is just a number and talent knows no bounds πŸ™Œ. They're not afraid to take risks and go for the win, which is so inspiring to watch 😍. I mean, who wouldn't want to see more of these young guns dominate on the court? The future of tennis looks bright with players like them around! πŸ’ͺ🏼
