Fundraising for the Queensland floods

2> Main article: 2010–2011 Queensland floods Following the widespread flooding in Queensland several players decided to raise money for the cause. The Association of Tennis Professionals and the Women's Tennis Association donated ten dollars for every ace served during the Australian Open and as well as during the two pre tournament joint events in Brisbane, before the Pat Rafter Arena was flooded four days after the conclusion of the 2011 Brisbane International,[17] and Sydney. In Brisbane, Andy Roddick and Sam Stosur pledged a hundred dollars for every ace they hit, which was also matched by Australian player Matthew Ebden when he played in Sydney the following week. Roddick later doubled his pledge to two hundred dollars. In total Roddick hit fifty four aces, raising just under eleven thousand dollars for his efforts during the Brisbane tournament. In addition to this the Brisbane International donated another five thousand dollars.[18] While American Bethanie Mattek-Sands pledged to donate five percent of her prize money from the Hobart International and Australian Open to the cause. Mattek–Sands move was similar to a gesture that she conducted to help the victims of the Nashville floods in 2010.[19] As well the ITF donated $25,000 towards the rebuilding of tennis facilities.[20] In total from the ATP and WTA's $10 per an ace drive they managed to raise $51,070 while Roddick donated over $10,000 from his personal pledge.[21]

Men's Singles

4> Novak Djokovic won the Australian Open for the second time. Main article: 2011 Australian Open – Men's Singles At the start of the 2011 Australian Open, World Number one Rafael Nadal was on the edge of history, as he had an opportunity to become the first man since Rod Laver in 1969 to hold all four Grand Slams at the same time, after winning the previous three.[26] This would not be the Grand Slam, but the media had dubbed the feat if Nadal was to achieve it the "Rafa Slam",[27] which was taken from the "Serena Slam" which was coined when Serena Williams won all four Grand Slam titles in a row spanning two calendar years, which was taken from the "Tiger Slam" in which golfer Tiger Woods accomplished a similar feat in golf.[28] Nadal was the number one seed and led the field. The other top ten seeds were; sixteen time Grand Slam champion, Roger Federer, 2008 Australian Open winner Novak Djokovic, two time Grand Slam finalists Robin Söderling and Andy Murray, Wimbledon runner up Tomáš Berdych, David Ferrer, 2003 US Open champion Andy Roddick, Fernando Verdasco and Mikhail Youzhny.[29][30] The start of the 2011 Australian Open saw all the seeds apart from Gulbis,[31] Querrey,[32] who lost in the fifth set 8–6 and Davydenko make it to the second round.[33] Montanes, Fish, Monfils, Baghdatis,[34] Tsonga, Bellucci and Nalbandian all survived final set deciders.[35] The second round witnessed all the seeds go though except Michaël Llodra who lost to qualifier Milos Raonic,[36] Feliciano López who went out to Wildcard Bernard Tomic,[37] Juan Mónaco lost to Robin Haase.[38] Fish lost to Robredo and Albert Montañés lost to Malisse.[39][40] While Nalbandian had to retire against Berenkis and Bellucci lost 8–6 in the final set to Hernych.[41][42] Youzhny, Verdasco,[43] Almagro and Federer all survived final set deciders to progress to the third round.[44] Raonic continued his form from the previous round as he upset Youzhny this time in four sets,[45] the biggest upset to date. While Alexandr Dolgopolov upset Tsonga coming back two sets to one down to win.[46] The third round is also where the seeds meet for the first time, so Garcia–Lopez,[47] Baghdatis,[48] Gasquet,[49] Ljubicic and Troicki all exited to higher seeds.[50][51] While Stanislas Wawrinka who was the nineteenth seed managed to defeat Gaël Monfils the twelfth seed in straight sets.[52] Marin Čilić, semifinalist from 2010 defeated John Isner 9–7 in the final set.[53] The fourth round saw Ferrer end Raonic's run, and Dolgopolov edge out Soderling in the final set for the biggest upset in the tournament to date.[54] There were also wins for Berdych,[55] Djokovic,[56] Federer, Murray and Nadal,[57][58] all except Federer eliminated other seeds. There was one other upset as nineteenth seed Wawrinka beat Roddick in straight sets.[59] Djokovic,[60] Federer and Murray successfully made their way into the semifinals,[61][62] however the upset of the tournament happened as Nadal went out. The "Rafa Slam" attempt came to an end on Australia Day in straight sets against Ferrer, a year to the day since Nadal last lost a Grand Slam match.[63][64] The semifinals witnessed Djokovic taking out Federer in straight sets[65] while Murray overcame Ferrer the next night in four sets.[66] In the final Djokovic defeated Murray for his second Australian Open crown in straight sets.[67] Championship match result Novak Djokovic def. Andy Murray, 6–4, 6–2, 6–3.[67]

Women's Singles

4> Kim Clijsters won her first Australian Open title. See also: 2011 Australian Open – Women's Singles The 2011 women's draw was missing its defending champion Serena Williams who pulled out in late 2010 due to ligament damage. World number one Caroline Wozniacki of Denmark was the number one seed. The Dane headed up the top ten seeds which included Vera Zvonareva, three time US Open champion Kim Clijsters, seven time Grand Slam champion Venus Williams, Samantha Stosur, reigning French Open Champion Francesca Schiavone, Jelena Janković, Victoria Azarenka, Li Na and Shahar Pe'er. Former Grand Slam champions, Justine Henin, Ana Ivanovic, Svetlana Kuznetsova and Maria Sharapova were also seeded.[68] The start of the 2011 Australian Open saw all the seeds apart from Rezaï,[69] Hantuchová,[70] Dulgheru.[71] The biggest upset of the first round was Ivanovic losing 10–8 in the final set to Ekaterina Makarova while Schiavone survived after being a set down to win the final set.[72] The biggest loser in the second round was Janković as she lost to Peng in straight sets.[73] The Serb was not the only seed to exit though as Iveta Benešová defeated Maria Kirilenko,[74] Martinez–Sanchez lost to Cornet. Kleybanova,[75] Kanepi,[76] Pironkova,[77] Bartoli and Wickmayer all joined them on the plane home.[78] Meanwhile Schiavone had to survive another final set decider this time winning it 9–7. The third round saw Kutznetsova defeat Henin,[79] in what turned out to be the Belgium's last ever match as she announced her retirement in the second week of the tournament. Andrea Petkovic had a virtual bye into round four as Williams retired after just seven points of their match.[80] Makarova caused another upset as she knocked out Nadia Petrova, while Benešová defeated Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova in the final set.[81][82] Other seeds who went out to other seeded players were Cibulková and Peer who lost in three sets.[83][84] While Petra Kvitová ended home hopes as she disposed of Stosur,[85] Sharapova had to come from a set down to progress to the next round. The fourth round witnessed women's tennis history, as the match between Kuznetsova and Schiavone broke records. The match became the longest match, in terms of time for women in a Grand Slam as it lasted for 4 hours, and 44 minutes. At 8–7 in the final set Kutznetsova had three match points, but the Italian saved all three. In the next game Schiavone broke her opponents serve but touched the net after hitting the winner, meaning the point went to Kutznetsova, when holding three break points. Kutznetsova had another three match points in the next game before a run of four games in a row where the serve was broken. Finally after breaking in the previous game and missing three match points Schiavone closed the match out to win 16–14 in the final set.[86] Other fourth round matches saw Sevastova's run end against Wozniacki and Makarova's end against Clijsters, while Petkovic upset Sharapova in straight sets.[87] Other upsets saw Na Li and Kvitová defeat higher seeded players. "I finally feel like you guys can call me Aussie Kim, because I've won the title" Kim Clijsters, in her post final speech.[88] In the quarterfinals Wozniacki put an end to Schiavone's run by winning a final set decider. Also going into the semifinals were Li who defeated Petkovic, Clijsters who defeated Radwańska and Zvonerava who took care of Kvitová. In the first semifinal Li caused an upset, as she saved match point, to defeat the world number one Wozniacki in three sets. As a result Li became the first Chinese citizen to reach a Grand Slam singles final.[89] Her opponent in the final, Clijsters, won in straight sets against Zvonerava.[90] In the final Clijsters came from a set down to claim her first Australian Open title. It was her fourth grand slam title in her career and second consecutive slam having won the US Open in 2010.[91] Championship match result Kim Clijsters def. Li Na, 3–6, 6–3, 6–3.[88]
