Australia has won its seventh Quad Series title, defeating the New Zealand Silver Ferns by six goals, 56-50, in the final of the 2023 tournament held in Cape Town.
The old trans-Tasman foes have always produced a generally tight contest, demonstrated by the fact that heading into this match, 80 of their 162 previous meetings had been decided by just five goals or less.
However, even though their battles over the past 12-24 months have still been close, they've somewhat lacked the level of intensity and spectacle we've come to expect from this rivalry in year's gone by.
