The Australian Open is done, and both winners were unexpected, but not the ones I picked. On the women's side, Cibulkova beat my pick, Radwanska, but lost to a deserving winner, Li Na, in the final. Good for Na - she's a hard worker with a long career and getting a second Slam will move her up in the historical perspective.
On the men's side, Wawrinka is also deserving, after battling Djokovic several times and prevailing this year, then going on to beat Berdych and then Nadal in the final. Nadal got hurt, but that's what happens in sports. Interesting story here -
Nadal had beaten him the previous 12 meetings. Wawrinka had never even won a set against him!
