Electronic line calling set for all Australian Open courts

Players wanting to stare down or glare at a line judge at the Australian Open after a close or contentious call will have difficulty doing so this year. There won't be any. In a Grand Slam first, there will be no on-court line judges on any of the courts in an effort to reduce the number of staff on-site during the COVID-19 pandemic. Only players, chair umpires and ball kids will be on the court.
