One of Djoker/Fed/Nadal will win. If Djoker/Fed win, they will overtake Roy Emerson with the most Aussie Open titles with whom they are currently tied. If Nadal wins, he will be the only player in the Open Era to win 2 career slams. Murray is retiring after Wimbledon.

On the women's side, Serena is still the favorite, Naomi Osaka looks to confirm her US Open victory over Serena, and Elina Svitolina, now with a Tour Finals title, will try not to choke in a major (spoiler: she will).

The first slam of the year begins on Monday, January 14 and ends on Sunday, January 27. Subtract 16 hours for U.S. Eastern Time.

TV coverage starts at 7 p.m. ET on ESPN2 on opening day but 9 p.m. thereafter due to college basketball. Fortunately, you can watch full tournament coverage when it starts at 7 p.m. every day at http://www.watchespn.com. The AO website and app also offer radio streams which are very good.

2 hours till the first ball. Not anything too interesting in the first set of matches. Sharapova opening on Laver though.

I fell asleep during the 4th set of Murray's match :smith:

Also I totally should've put :20bux: on Serena at 9/2 :smithicide:

None of today’s matches are appealing to me. Tennis is dead.

Part of me wants Serena to win just so she can lose to Osaka again.

But I’d rather not take the chance and just have Pliskova beat her.

This is already better than any final Serena has been in.

The era of Fedal is over. We now exist in the Novak zone.
