Australian Open

Second seeded Serena Williams regained the women’s singles title and recorded her fourth Australian Open title and tenth Grand Slam title overall after defeating third seed Dinara Safina (6–0, 6–3). Serena, partnering her sister Venus, also won the women’s doubles tournament.
Rafael Nadal (1) defeated Roger Federer (2) (7–5, 3–6, 7–6 (3), 3–6, 6–2) to win the men’s singles title. This is Nadal’s first hard court grand slam, having previously only won on clay at Roland Garros (four times) and grass at Wimbledon (once). He also became the first Spaniard to ever win the Australian Open.
