Melbourne’s notorious weather has made many a front page during the Open; the great flood of 1995 saw backhands give way to backstroke on centre court. The women’s final in 2003 between sisters Venus and Serena Williams was played indoors not because of rain, but infernal 44-degreee heat.

Prime Time

The centenary Australian championships in 2005 staged the first Grand Slam men’s final in prime-time, with Marat Safin defeating local hope Lleyton Hewitt. In 2009, Marat’s little sister Dinara lost the first women’s night final at Melbourne Park, to the all-conquering Serena Williams. Night-time finals have proved another winning move for the Australian Open. The Safin-Hewitt final was watched by 4.1 million Aussies — eyeball numbers more associated with grand finals and royal weddings.
