Pinch your arms. It’s really happening. Roger Federer and Rafael Nadal are playing another Grand Slam Final (a “Fedal”) against each other after two five-set semi-finals of absolutely amazing quality. And it feels like some kind of divine justice that the guys left standing are Federer and Nadal. This means that on Sunday Federer can win his 18th slam or Nadal his 15th. Who is your pick? This is what …

My predictions for the Australian Open wasn’t very good ahead of the tournament, but round-by-round they’ve been pretty decent. And now it’s really getting mouthwatering with both Federer and Nadal in the semi-finals, only one step from another classic Fedal final. Can it be?

What about Dr Ivo Karlovic breaking the ace record (75!) in his five hour match against Zeballos! Or juniors Alexander Bublik or Frances Tiafoe showing their talent with impressive wins. But this is now old news – now we prepare for round …
