Men’s singles

• {{flagicon|SUI}} Roger Federer defeated {{flagicon|ESP}} Rafael Nadal, 6–4, 3–6, 6–1, 3–6, 6–3

This was a rematch of the 2009 Australian Open final, which Rafael Nadal won to become the first (and to date, only) Spaniard to win the Australian Open title. The final saw the two holding service for six games of the first set, whilst during the seventh game was the pivotal break of serve giving Federer the opening set. Nadal quickly broke Federer’s serve in the second set racing out to a lead that Federer could not overcome, giving him the second set and leveling the match at one set apiece. The third set was a rather lopsided affair seeing Nadal secure his service game only in the fourth game of the set. The fourth set started off competitively with the two holdings serve until Nadal broke in the fourth game of the set, a lead he would never surrender, evening the match at two sets apiece. The decisive fifth set commenced with a break of Federer’s serve by Nadal, giving him a lead in the early going; however, Nadal’s serve got broken during the sixth game of the set, leveling the match at two sets and three games apiece. Federer won the next three games breaking Nadal’s service in the eighth game of the set to allow him to successfully serve out the match in the final ninth game. This was Roger Federer’s 18th Grand Slam singles title, the most ever by a man in the history of tennis, and it was his fifth Australian Open title, just one shy of the record co-held by Novak Djokovic and Roy Emerson.WEB, Jacob, Steinberg,www.theguardian.com/sport/live/2017/jan/29/roger-federer-v-rafael-nadal-australian-open-final-live, Roger Federer beats Rafael Nadal to win Australian Open men’s final – as it happened, The Guardian, 29 January 2017, 2 February 2017, 2 February 2017,web.archive.org/web/20170202104503/https://www.theguardian.com/sport/live/2017/jan/29/roger-federer-v-rafael-nadal-australian-open-final-live, live, Federer would go on to equal this record by defending his title successfully the next year.

Women’s singles

• {{flagicon|USA}} Serena Williams defeated {{flagicon|USA}} Venus Williams, 6–4, 6–4

This was a rematch of the 2003 Australian Open final, where Serena Williams completed the first “Serena Slam” and her career Grand Slam, whilst Serena won five more Australian Open titles in the interim and her sister Venus had no other final appearances at the event. They each broke the others’ serve twice to start the match with Venus finally holding serve in the fifth service game and her sister Serena holding her own serve in the subsequent game. The seventh game was the pivotal break of service that Serena Williams got on her sister Venus’ serve, costing her the set just a mere three games later. During the second set, the two traded held service games for the first six games to start the set, whilst Venus started serving first. She would get broken again during the seventh game of the set, which eventually surrendered the match to sister Serena. This was Serena Williams’ 23 Grand Slam singles title and seventh Australian Open title for her career, both being Open era records, whilst being one shy of Margaret Court’s record of 24 in the history of tennis.WEB, Bryan Armen, Graham,www.theguardian.com/sport/live/2017/jan/28/serena-williams-venus-australian-open-womens-final-live, Serena Williams beats Venus Williams to win the Australian Open – as it happened, The Guardian, 28 January 2017, 2 February 2017, 1 February 2017,web.archive.org/web/20170201144419/https://www.theguardian.com/sport/live/2017/jan/28/serena-williams-venus-australian-open-womens-final-live, live,
