234SPORTS: NOVAK DJOKOVIC AND VICTORIA AZARENKA WINS AUSTRALIA GRAND SLAM

 

 

 

The first Grand Slam of the 2013 tennis season has been decided, as we congratulate Novak Djokovic and Victoria Azarenka on winning the Australian Open men’s and women’s single titles. Each working on a modest winning streak, Azarenka won her second consecutive Open title and Djokovic captured an unprecedented third straight championship down under.

The match marks the end of 2013's first major tournament, and the last we'll see for a while. The next Grand Slam, the French Open, doesn't start for a distant four months (May 26th).
With that gap lingering in front of us, the results from Melbourne are expected to drive tennis discourse for a substantial period.
