Wayne Arthurs of Australia in action against Ivo Heuberger of Switzerland during the second round of the Australian Open Tennis Championships, played at Melbourne Park in Melbourne, Australia.

Wayne Arthurs survived a harrowing match with the little-known Heuberger, beating him 6-3 3-6 6-3 3-6 6-1.

Seeing success only in the past two years, the 29-year-old Arthurs took almost three hours to defeat the inexperienced Swiss player, who was making his debut in the singles draw.
