Edmund stuns Anderson to reach Aussie Open second round
Britain's Kyle Edmund outfought Kevin Anderson in a marathon to send the 11th seed tumbling out of the Australian Open in five sets.
Flying the Union Flag alone in the men's draw in the absence of injured compatriot Andy Murray, Edmund onjured up the best result of his career the hard way.
The world number 49 twice needed to come from a set down to force a deciding fifth set, where again he battled back from a break down to clinch victory and set up a second round clash with Uzbek Denis Istomin.
