For the men, Stanislas Wawrinka finished as the champion after a final against Rafael Nadal that had more twists and turns than a season of Scandal. On the women's side, as Serena Williams, Maria Sharapova and Victoria Azarenka were sent home early, Li Na walked away with the title.
Li was favored by the time she reached the final, but the most shocking development was Wawrinka's ascent as he knocked off top seed and prohibitive favorite Rafael Nadal in four sets to capture the trophy at Melbourne Park.
This tournament cemented some legacies, put question marks around others, saw soaring temperatures and a record-breaking number of legendary players in the coaching boxes.
It was a surprising, entertaining and perfect way to kick off the 2014 tennis season. Here are the winners and losers from a nonstop two weeks of world-class tennis in Melbourne.
Stanislas Wawrinka humbled injured Rafael Nadal 6–3, 6–2, 3–6, 6–3 in the final to clinch his maiden Australian Open men's singles title. This, incidentally his maiden victory over clay-king Nadal, could not have come at a better time than this. Ironically, he never even had won a single set against him in their previous 12 encounters.
