For the second time in this blog's history, I get to write about a Grand Slam win by the maestro that is Roger Federer 🙂 . It has been five years in the making, and many fans thought 17 was the final count, but he somehow found an extra gear to defeat Rafael Nadal 6-4 3-6 6-1 3-6 6-3 and …

Another win for the Swiss Maestro in Melbourne as he booked his spot in the third round with a 7-5 6-3 7-6(3) win over American Noah Rubin.

A winning return to competitive play for Roger Federer as he overcame qualifier Jurgen Melzer 7-5 3-6 6-2 6-2 at the Australian Open.
