Corentin Moutet advanced to the second round of the 2026 Australian Open with a straight-sets victory over local favorite Tristan Schoolkate, but drew boos from the Melbourne crowd after using an underarm serve on match point. The 32nd-seeded Frenchman, ranked world No. 34, overcame a hamstring issue to secure the 6-4, 7-6(1), 6-3 win. Moutet apologized on court, expressing respect for his opponent and the fans.
