Default Watch the Australien Open in Melbourne?

Hi there,
I am going on a reccie trip to Melbourne next weekend and unfortunately, I missed out on a ticket for the men´s final on Sunday
Are there any nice bars/pubs in Melbourne (near city centre) which broadcast the tennis match, maybe on a big screen, so at least I can join into the atmosphere with other fellow sport fans?
Any advice would be appreciated!

We'll probably be watching it in Federation square (definitely be there if Murray makes the final)

I found out that Daikin Air Conditioners - are airing their "you can't handle the truth" advert 1560 times over the Tennis in WA.

I have seen 1000 myself and although they would have been my first choice - I will never buy one anymore - any other brand.... Their brand tattooing has backfired on me!

I hate it I hate it I hate it!!!

For $20 you can get yourself a ground pass which will get you in the gates of Melbourne Park.

You can then go see whatever is happening on the outer courts and then settle down with a beer in the garden there and watch it on the big screen.

For the money it is as close as you'll get and the atmos is pretty good...
