The 2017 Australian Open Men's Singles final was the championship tennis match of the Men's Singles tournament at the 2017 Australian Open.
 It was contested between Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal, ranked 17th and 9th in the world respectively.
 It was their record ninth meeting in a Grand Slam final in their rivalry, and their 1st meeting in a Grand Slam final since the 2011 French Open.
 In a rematch of the 2009 Australian Open final, which Nadal won in 5 sets, Roger Federer won the duel in 5 sets, beating Nadal for the first time in a Grand Slam since the 2007 Wimbledon final.
 He also trailed Nadal 3–1 in the final set but won 5 games in a row to win the title.
 This ended a 6-match losing streak against Nadal in Grand Slam events.
 Having lost all of their previous three encounters, this was the first time Federer defeated Nadal at the Australian Open and also marked Federer's first Grand Slam victory over Nadal outside the grass courts of Wimbledon.
 Federer extended his record of Grand Slam men's singles titles to 18, marking the third time he broke his own all-time record, after breaking the previous record of 14, held by Pete Sampras.
Adriano Panatta (born 9 July 1950) is a former professional tennis player from Italy.
 He is best remembered for winning the French Open in 1976, and for being the only player to ever defeat Björn Borg at Roland Garros, which he did on two occasions.
The 2004 French Open was the 103rd edition of the tournament.
 Gastón Gaudio became the first men's Open Era Grand Slam title winner to save match points (2) in the final; the last time that had happened was 70 years earlier.
 Gaudio also became the first Argentine man since Guillermo Vilas to win a grand slam, in 1979.
 Fellow Argentine Guillermo Coria, widely regarded as the favourite and best clay court player in the world coming into the tournament, was seeded 3rd for the event, whereas Gaudio was unseeded (ranked 44th) and with only two titles to his name, both of which he had won over two years before.
 After winning the first two sets convincingly, Coria began suffering from leg cramps. Gaudio won the next two sets; however, Coria came back and was up two breaks of serve in the final set.
 Coria had two match points at 6–5 before Gaudio prevailed 0–6, 3–6, 6–4, 6–1, 8–6.
 Gaudio also became the first man to win a Grand Slam tournament final after being bagelled in the first set.
 The tournament was noted for the excellent performance of the Argentine players – in addition to the two finalists, there were a semifinalist (David Nalbandian) and a quarterfinalist (Juan Ignacio Chela).
 It was also highlighted by a first round match between Fabrice Santoro and Arnaud Clément, lasting 6 hours and 33 minutes and ending in Clement's defeat 6–4, 6–3, 6–7, 3–6, 16–14, setting a new record for the longest singles match in the open era, which would stand until Wimbledon 2010.
 It was also the last Grand Slam tournament to feature neither Roger Federer nor Rafael Nadal in the semi-finals until the 2012 US Open.
Filip Peliwo (born January 30, 1994) is a Canadian professional tennis player.
 Peliwo became the first Canadian male and second Canadian ever to win a Grand Slam in singles at any level with his 2012 Wimbledon boys' title win.
 This was Canada's second Grand Slam title in two days, one day after Eugenie Bouchard's.
 With the victory, Peliwo reached the No. 1 combined junior world ranking in July 2012, the first time a Canadian has been top ranked.
 He won his second straight junior Grand Slam title at the 2012 US Open.
 Peliwo was also runner-up in the boys singles events at the 2012 Australian Open and French Open.
Heather Miriam Watson (born 19 May 1992) is a British tennis player and a Wimbledon Mixed Doubles Champion.
 She is a former British No.1 and current British No. 2 behind Johanna Konta.
Steffi Graf was the defending champion, and she successfully defended her title by defeating World No. 1 Monica Seles in the final 6–2, 6–1.
 It was Graf's fourth Wimbledon title overall, and it was Seles' best career finish at a Wimbledon.
 Seles was going for a 4th consecutive grand slam title, having won the US Open, Australian Open, and French Open in succession.
 This would also be the only grand slam match that Seles would lose in 1992, thus preventing her from completing the career Grand Slam.
The Grand Slam tournaments, also called majors, are the four most important annual tennis events.
 They offer the most ranking points, prize money, public and media attention, the greatest strength and size of field, and greater number of "best of" sets for men.
 The Grand Slam itinerary consists of the Australian Open in mid January, the French Open in May and June, Wimbledon in July, and the US Open in August and September.
 Each tournament is played over a period of two weeks.
 The Australian and United States tournaments are played on hard courts, the French on clay, and Wimbledon on grass.
 Wimbledon is the oldest, founded in 1877, followed by the US in 1881, the French in 1891, and the Australian in 1905.
 However, of these four, only Wimbledon was a major before 1924–25, when all four became designated Grand Slam tournaments.
 Skipping Grand Slam tournaments—especially the Australian Open because of the remoteness, the inconvenient dates (around Christmas and New Year's Day) and the low prize money—was not unusual before 1982, which was the start of the norm of counting Grand Slam titles.
The Williams sisters are two professional American tennis players: Venus Williams (b. 1980), a seven-time Grand Slam title winner (singles), and Serena Williams (b. 1981), twenty-three-time Grand Slam title winner (singles), both of whom were coached from an early age by their parents Richard Williams and Oracene Price.
 There is a noted professional rivalry between them – between the 2001 US Open and the 2017 Australian Open tournaments, they met in nine Grand Slam singles finals.
 They became the first two players, female or male, to play in 4 consecutive grand slam singles finals from the 2002 French Open to the 2003 Australian Open; Serena famously won all 4 to complete the first of two "Serena Slams".
 Between 2000 and 2016, a 17-year span, they collectively won 12 Wimbledon singles titles (Venus won 5 and Serena won 7).
 By winning the 2001 Australian Open women's doubles title, they became the 5th pair to complete the Career Doubles Grand Slam and the only pair to complete the Career Doubles Golden Slam.
 At the time, Venus and Serena were only 20 and 19 years old, respectively.
 Since then they have gone on to add another two Olympic gold medals in the 2008 Beijing Olympics and the 2012 London Olympics.
 Nearly a decade later, the duo would go on to win 4 consecutive grand slam doubles titles from 2009 Wimbledon through 2010 Roland Garros, which would catapult them to co-No.
 1 doubles players on 7 June 2010.
 Two weeks later, on 21 June 2010, Serena would hold the No. 1 singles ranking and Venus would be right behind her at No. 2 in singles.
 Their most recent grand slam doubles titles came at the 2012 Wimbledon & 2016 Wimbledon events.
 They remain very close, often watching each other's matches in support, even after one of them has been knocked out of a tournament.
