Australian Open 2010

Roger Federer had previously won the Australian Open in 2004, 2006, 2007, 2010 and 2017.

The 22-year-old Spaniard Garbine Muguruza has steadily risen through the rankings since 2010 to a career-high three, and gets her Australian Open underway on Tuesday against Estonia's Anett Kontaveit.

Serena Williams, 18-time Grand Slam champion won the last of her five Australian crowns in 2010 and expressed frustration that a sixth had eluded her for so long.

Croatia's Marin Cilic was 21 when he reached the semi-finals of the 2010 Australian Open but had only made it to the quarter-finals in two more majors since -- the 2012 US Open and at Wimbledon this year. That sense of time slipping away was even stronger at this time last year, as he missed the final Grand Slam of 2013 serving a doping ban.

Marin Cilic beat sixth-seeded Tomas Berdych, 6-2, 6-4, 7-6 (4), in the U.S. Open quarterfinals on Thursday, launching himself into the semifinals of a major for the first time since he was a 21-year-old wonder at the 2010 Australian Open.

Marin Cilic, the Croatian ranked 16th in the world powered past seventh-ranked Czech Tomas Berdych 6-2, 6-4, 7-6 (7/4) to reach the US Open final four on Thursday, his first major semi since the 2010 Australian Open.

Roger Federer has appeared in 24 men's Grand Slam finals, ten on them on-the-trot. He also appeared in 18 of 19 finals from the 2005 Wimbledon Championships through to the 2010 Australian Open.

Berdych, who was runner-up to Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon in 2010, has not been beyond two quarter-final appearances in Melbourne and gets his chance with world number four Nadal missing to go further in this year's tournament.

He might not have won any Grand Slam title after the Australian Open in 2010, but Roger Federer still rules. The World No 3 is the richest international athlete in the list of Sports Illustrated's Fortunate 50. He tops the list of richest 20 non-American athletes with $61,768,110 in total prize money and endorsement contracts.

The last man to win a Grand Slam - who is not named Rafa or Roger - was eliminated from the Australian Open on Thursday. Juan Martin del Potro, winner of the 2009 US Open and the emerging star of that season, spent most of 2010 recovering from surgery on his right wrist.

India has surpassed hopes and expectations with the Commonwealth Games opening ceremony and should aim for hosting the Olympics, Australian Sports Minister Mark Arbib said on Tuesday.

Fifth seed Samantha Stosur became the first Australian woman in the US Open quarter-finals since Wendy Turnbull in 1986 by defeating Russian 12th seed Elena Dementieva 6-3, 2-6, 7-6 (7/2) early Monday.

Roger Federer and Serena Williams reaffirmed themselves as the undisputed king and queen of tennis as the Australian Open kicked off the new season, while Chinese players gave a glimpse of the future.
