The 6-4 6-1 victory means Aiava will face German Eva Lys for a chance to play at her first Australian Open main draw in four years. Ellis will be the sole Australian male in the final round of qualifying after he triumphed over Japan’s Yosuke Watanuki 6-1 6-4. He plays No.1 seed Dominik Koepfer tomorrow.

Great Britain's Harriet Dart and Billy Harris have reached the final round of qualifying for the Australian Open, but Heather Watson was beaten at Melbourne Park. Third seed Dart, who has recently slipped out of the world's top 100, fought back to beat Australian teenager Taylah Preston 6-7 (7-9) 6-1 6-2.

Harriet Dart is one win of qualifying for the Australian Open but Heather Watson's hopes for another year are over. Dart came through 6-7 (6) 6-1 6-2 after dropping a see-saw first set to Australian teenager Taylah Preston in Melbourne.
