- Serena Williams made an embarrassing mistake before her Australian Open match against Simona Halep on Monday.
- Williams was already through the tunnel and had made a few steps onto the court when she was receiving applause from the crowd.
- The only problem? The cheers were not for her. She had mistimed her entrance as the announcer had called for the world number one Halep.
- Any embarrassment proved to be short-lived as Williams beat Halep two sets to one, and now progresses into Wednesday's quarter-final.
Serena Williams looked mortified as she made her way to the Rod Laver Arena for her crucial Australian Open match on Monday.
