Australian Open: Rafa roars back, breaks record

The Hindu  

The legend lives on! “One month-and-a-half ago I didn’t know if I would be able to be back on the tour again,” Rafael Nadal confided to the Australian Open crowd. “It energised Nadal and bothered Medvedev.” Moments that made the Australian Open 2022 Much like Nadal’s classic victory against Federer in the 2008 Wimbledon final and his spectacular marathon loss to Novak Djokovic at the 2012 Australian Open final, this duel featured punishing rallies, jaw-dropping shot-making, and score fluctuations. She goes out there thinking, ‘I can win this.’” Barty says 'dream come true' to win Australian Open The first set went predictably to Barty. The crowd responded with what Stubbs called “the loudest roar I’ve ever heard in this arena.” Fittingly, Barty clinched the 7-2 tiebreaker and her third major title with a picture-perfect, forehand crosscourt passing shot.
