Roger Federer beat Nadal to win the Australian Open 2017

Oh boy what a match it was today between the two tennis giants; The seventeen times Grand Slam winner Roger Federer and fourteen times Grand Slam title holder Rafael Nadal.

As I wrote yesterday that age does not matter for some, it is true for America's Serena Williams and Swiss Roger Federer. Like Serena Williams, the same age 35-year-old Federer claimed his eighteenth Grand Slam title by beating Nadal 6-4 3-6 6-1 3-6 6-3.

But for Federer the match was not easy as Nadal, coming back to finals after years of injuries preventing him to climb up the ladder. Nadal and Federer won one set after the other and it was the fifth set in which Nadal finally gave away the title to Federer.


It was federer's fifth Australian title, which also takes him on top of the world list as for men's single titles are concerned.
