Who are the Australian Open defending champions?
Novak Djokovic now holds a record eight Australian Open titles but could not quite repeat the success of Team Serbia in the ATP Cup as a precursor to the main event, but is most definitely the favourite to add to his tally of Slams.
Sofia Kenin will mount her first defence of a major title, but the pressure might have already been telling on her, as she was quite emotional as she lost in the quarter-final of the Yarra Valley Classic in the lead-in to this year’s Australian Open.
