For old fans, this Australian Open really sees tears falling and crying with joy at any time. The
Grand Slam final was played by the No. 9 seed golfer and No. 17 seed golfer, which should have been an accident, but these two veterans are Rafa Nadal (14) and Roger Federer (17), who have the most Grand Slam champions in modern tennis. What was unexpected was that the two have experienced various injuries in recent years, changing coaches, rackets, and shooting points, footwork, and tactics, and they actually kept up the ups and downs in the first Grand Slam match in 2017 at the same time, catching back the long-lost feeling and moving forward step by step. Following the 2011 French Open, they once again faced their lifelong rivals in the Grand Slam final.
On Rod Laver Arena, Roger Federer regained his super attack tennis style. Single Backhand, which has been regarded as a degenerate weakness in the past few years, has become extremely dangerous. Rafa Nadal not only overcomes knee and wrist injuries, but also through tough battles, including perfectly subduing Milos Raonic, the record holder of ATP kick-off speed, to 120%. In the semi-finals, the strongest Roger Federer faced Stan Wawrinka, the same aggressive Grand Slam champion; the strongest Shield Rafa Nadal met the most super-level talented golfer Grigor Dimitrov, who had to score 5 sets in both games; the two veterans over 30 were able to overcome their physical fitness and step up to the finals. During the post-match interview, the two revealed at the same time that they never imagined that they could reach the finals in this game, and were very glad that their opponents would be their long-lost enemy. Since Federer and Wawrinka compete one day earlier and the game time is short, it is expected that his physical fitness will recover better than Nadal, and he will have an advantage in the finals. The Aus Open 2017 final will start at 1:00 p.m. Hong Kong time at the beginning of the year.
On the other side, the women's singles final is even more dramatic, and the Williams sisters will face off in the Grand Slam final again after Wimbledon in 2008. After 9 years, my sister Venus Williams is 36 years old and suffers from the rare Sjogren's Syndrome. Her body muscles and joints can suddenly lose strength without warning. In the past few years, she has always been eliminated in the first two laps of the competition. This year, Aus Open, has returned to her courage and played the strong level of the past. Serena Williams is also a 35-year-old veteran with 22 Grand Slam singles champions (plus 14 women's doubles and 2 mixed doubles champions). His performance declined slightly last year and could not keep the world's first place, but this year's Aus Open was full of killing intentions and reached the finals without losing a set. The women's singles final will start at 1:00 p.m. Hong Kong time at the beginning of the year.
