Here's what you can chat up:
> Serena Williams captured the women's single's title. It's the first of the grand slams that she played since a meltdown at the U.S. Open, when she screamed at a line judge. Her tirade landed her on probation.
> She had to battle it out to win, going 3 sets. FYI - in women's tennis, the victor takes the best of 3 sets. In men's, it's the best of 5 sets.
> It's her 5th Australian Open title.
On the men's side:
> Roger Federer won the men's single's title.
> This is his 16th career grand slam, more than any man in history.
> How many more will he win in his career? He's 28 and has at least another few in him.
> His closest rival, Rafael Nadal, suffered an early defeat in the Open so, psychologically Federer has the edge.
Enjoy watching these two tremendous athletes. They're worth appreciating.
